Abstract
Pb2+ accumulation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae changed by Hg2+ and cell conditions. The accumulated Pb2+ amounts decreased from 0.22 to 0.02 mmol Pb2+/g cell dry weight by the existence of Hg2+. But the total metals accumulation (0.42 mmol metal ions/g cell dry weight) was not changed. The order of accumulated Pb2+ amounts (mg Pb2+/g cell dry weight) according to the cell conditions at an equilibrium state was shown as the original cell (260) > 5 times autoclaved cell for 15 min (150) > grinded cell after drying (100) > autoclaved cell for 5 min (30).
