Non-viable yeast cells are immobilised in alginate beads. The beads are stirred in glucose medium under anaerobic conditions. The effective diffusivity of glucose in the beads depends on cell density according to the relationship:$\mathcal{D}_{Ac}$ = 6.33-7.17yCwhere $\mathcal{D}_{Ac}$ is effective diffusivity ×1010 m2 s-1 and yC is the weight fraction of yeast in the gel.
