Abstract
The biochemical behaviour of four commercial strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was studied in the presence of calcium ions, acrylamide and bisacrylamide. Calcium ions at a concentration of 300 microM induced an increase of NAD(P)+ reduction in commercial Turkish and American strains, while in Chilean and Brazilian commercial strains, it diminished NAD(P)+ reduction. On the other hand, polyacrylamide monomers (acrylamide and bisacrylamide) induced a decrease of NAD(P)+ reduction in all strains studied in this paper. When membrane potential (delta psi) and oxygen consumption were measured in the presence of polyacrylamide monomers, a decrease of both was observed in all strains studied.Entities:
