The 5-days course includes introductory lectures and individual practical works. Practical works include following: identification of the yeasts, mating of yeasts, sporulation, immobilization of cells, the production of extra-cellular proteins, killer phenotype, adhesion test, detection of copper level (yeast biosenzor), test of mutagenicity using S. cerevisiae strain.
