Real-time monitoring of yeast cell division by Dielectric spectroscopy (CAT#: STEM-ST-0365-WXH)

Introduction

Yeast cells are round to long cells that reproduce vegetatively by budding or germinate to produce a mycelium. Yeast cells divide as rapidly as once every 90 min under optimal laboratory conditions, through a process of budding in which smaller daughter cells pinch, or bud, off the mother cell. The common name “budding yeast” derives from this notable feature of cell division and distinguishes S.
