Flow process for electroextraction of intracellular enzymes from the fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe

Abstract

Flow treatment of the yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, with high intensity electric field pulses released intracellular enzymes such as glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and phosphoglycerate kinase. Over 70% of the total activity was liberated within 4 h after pulse application. The optimal field intensities were considerably higher than that needed for irreversible plasma membrane permeabilization.
