Bioinspired Functionalization of Silica-Encapsulated Yeast Cells

Tough shell: Living yeast cells can be simultaneously silica‐encapsulated and thiol‐functionalized by polycondensation of silicic acid and (3‐mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane under mild conditions. Various functions such as fluorescent dyes (see picture; green: fluorescein, red: rhodamine), chemical...

Zusammenfassung:Tough shell: Living yeast cells can be simultaneously silica‐encapsulated and thiol‐functionalized by polycondensation of silicic acid and (3‐mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane under mild conditions. Various functions such as fluorescent dyes (see picture; green: fluorescein, red: rhodamine), chemical moieties, or proteins, can be introduced to the artificial shell by using maleimide‐based coupling reactions.
