Abstract

The analysis of K⁺ release, respiration rates and tests relying on diffusion processes in agar medium have applications for the study and assessment of heavy metal toxicity towards fungi and yeasts. Such techniques have been seldom exploited for this purpose but can provide information not only on toxicity but also on morphological and physiological responses towards heavy metals.
