Electrostatic interaction between the yeast cell surface and tartrazine molecules. At a pH of 2, the yeast surface carries positive charges that attract the anionic tartrazine, thereby favoring adsorption. At a neutral pH of 7, the yeast surface charge is less favorable or neutral, leading to unfavorable interactions and reduced adsorption due to electrostatic repulsion with the anionic dye.
