Physiological responses of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to industrially relevant conditions: Slow growth, low pH, and high CO2 levels.

abstract：:Polymeric membranes are increasingly used as supports for the immobilization of enzymes in bioreactors. One of the more common reactor types employed in lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis of oils, contains modified cellulose as a membrane material. We found that this type of material is readily attacked by cellulase present ...
