Viability of Si matrix encapsulated S. cerevisiae cells (SG-CViL-40°C). 24 hours, 96 hours, and 29 days post encapsulation using CFDA/PI staining. Cells emitting green fluorescence are considered viable; yellow and red emitting cells are considered non-viable. Cells were stained and images taken 24 hours, 96 hours, and 29 days post SG-CViL. Images show that S. cerevisiae cells (black arrows) 60% viability when encapsulated and stored for 29 days. All images taken at same magnification. Scale bar = 20 microns.
