Abstract
A method of covalent immobilization of microorganisms (marine luminesc ent bacteria and yeast) in polymeric hydrogels is described. It is sho wn that cell immobilization leads to the creation of materials having properties of both synthetic polymers and physiologically active syste ms. Application of systems containing covalent immobilized yeast and p hotobacteria in biotechnological and other processes is proposed.
