Real-time Monitoring of Non-specific Toxicity Using a Saccharomyces cerevisiae Reporter System
Baker’s yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is the simplest and most well-known representative of eukaryotic cells and thus a convenient model organism for evaluating toxic effects in human cells and tissues. Yeast cell sensors are easy to maintain with short generation times, which makes the anal...
