The purpose of this study was to assess the chromium (Cr) distribution in chromium-rich brewer's yeast cell. The chromium concentrations in the cell wall and protoplast fractions of the chromium-rich yeast were determined by neutron activation analysis (NAA). Moreover, the combined state of chromium and amino acid content in the Cr-rich brewer's yeasts was analyzed and measured. The experimental results indicate that the introduction of water-soluble chromium(III) salt as a component of the culture medium for yeasts results in a substantial amount of chromium absorbed through the cell wall by the yeast, among which 80.9% are accumulated in the protoplast. It implies that, under optimal conditions, yeasts are capable of accumulating large amounts of chromium and incorporating chromium into organic compounds.
本研究的目的是评估富铬啤酒酵母细胞中铬(Cr)的分布情况。通过中子活化分析(NAA)测定了富铬酵母细胞壁和原生质体部分的铬浓度。此外,还对富铬啤酒酵母中铬的结合状态和氨基酸含量进行了分析和测定。实验结果表明,将水溶性铬(III)盐作为酵母培养基的一种成分引入后,酵母会通过细胞壁吸收大量铬,其中80.9%积累在原生质体中。这意味着,在最佳条件下,酵母能够积累大量铬并将其整合到有机化合物中。
