  • Title: Observation of baker's yeast strains used in biotransformation by atomic force microscopy.
    Author: Pereira Rde S, Parizotto NA, Baranauskas V.
    Journal: Appl Biochem Biotechnol; 1996 May; 59(2):135-43. PubMed ID: 8678483.
    Abstract:
    Different strains of baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) were imaged with an atomic force microscope (AFM). The images of uncoated and nonfixed samples were reproducible with high-constrast and nanometer-resolution. Molecules from the polysaccharide surface of the cell wall were pictured and the distance of atoms was measured. The preparation of samples was easy, suggesting that AFM is a useful tool in this type of analyses.
