Abstract:
A method of covalent immobilization of microorganisms (marine luminescent bacteria and yeast) in polymeric hydrogels is described. It is shown that cell immobilization leads to the creation of materials having properties of both synthetic polymers and physiologically active systems. Application of systems containing covalent immobilized yeast and photobacteria in biotechnological and other processes is proposed.
