Applied usage of yeast spores as chitosan beads.
In this study, we present a nonhazardous biological method of producing chitosan beads using the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Yeast cells cultured under conditions of nutritional starvation cease vegetative growth and instead form spores. The spore wall has a multilaminar structure with the chitosan layer as the second outermost layer. Thus, removal of the outermost dityrosine layer ...
متن کاملGrinding Microorganisms with a Peristaltic Pump.
The Randolph Co. model 610 peristaltic, (1/8)-hp pump was effective for preparative purposes in disrupting baker's yeast and spores of Bacillus globigii when suspended with glass beads. Best results were obtained with use of a slurry just fluid enough to flow through tubing while stirred. Beads of 0.2 and 0.1 mm were used to best advantage for the yeast cells and spores, respectively. Yeast cel...
متن کاملBiosorption of nonylphenol on dead biomass of Rhizopus arrhizus encapsulated in chitosan beads.
The nonylphenol (NP) biosorption and desorption potential for fungal biomass used under batch conditions was investigated using kinetics and isotherm models. Fungal biomass of Rhizopus arrhizus TISTR 3610 exhibited preferential uptake of NP, an endocrine disrupting chemicals. Sporangiospores, asexual spores, were immobilised in chitosan beads. The biosorption data of NP on the moist heat inacti...
متن کاملPreparation and Characterization of Theophylline-Chitosan Beads as an Aapproach to Colon Delivery
Chitosan with excellent biodegradable and biocompatible characteristics has received attention as an oral drug delivery vehicle for controlled-release formulations. In this study an enteric-coated capsule containing theophylline-chitosan beads based on 23 factorial designs was prepared as a colon drug delivery system. The theophylline-chitosan gel beads were formulated by adding the drug-contai...
متن کاملBiosorption of lead from acid solution using chitosan as a supporting material for spore forming-fungal biomass encapsulation
Asexual spores of the filamentous fungus Rhizopus arrhizus were used as the resting biomass as they tolerate chitosan gelling for mycelia growing in chitosan beads. Biosorption of lead using the dead detergent pretreated chitosan-immobilised and grown fungal beads was performed with initial lead (II) nitrate concentrations ranging from 9.02 to 281.65 mg/L. The adsorption data were best correlat...
