Y. Kurokawa et al., Entrap-immobilization of cells (S-cerevisiae) on titanium iso-propoxide-cellulose gel fiber and its properties, KOBUNSH RON, 57(2), 2000, pp. 100-104
S. cerevisiae cells have been entrap-immobilized on titanium iso-propoxide-
cellulose acetate fiber by using the gel Formation. Entrapped cell were com
pared with native cells For ethyl alcohol fermentation and beta-keto ester
(ethyl acetoacetate) biotransformation. The entrapped fibers can he used in
phosphate media. in which conventional entrapped alginate will dissolve. H
owever. it was Found that. when the cells grew with an increase of reaction
period. then one part of the grown cells were released From entrapped fibe
r.
