Fig. 4From: Recovery of platinum(0) through the reduction of platinum ions by hydrogenase-displaying yeastXPS spectra of black precipitates. The black precipitates produced after the reduction were analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Ni-Hyd, black precipitates produced by Ni-Hyd-displaying yeast (red line); Hyn B, black precipitates produced by Hyn B-displaying yeast (blue line); Control, precipitates produced by control yeast (green line). Binding energies of 70.7–71.3 eV (orange), 72.6–72.8 eV (pink), and 72.4–74.6 eV (light blue) correspond to Pt(0), Pt(OH)2, and PtO, respectivelyBack to article page
