Pichia pastoris-How infective?

[PltchrS at aol.com]

Hi all,

Our lab is thinking of moving to the P. Pastoris system to express our 
recombinant protein.  However, there is concern in the building over the 
possiblity of the yeast contaminating primary cell cultures.  I would like to 
know how infective this yeast may be and/or the conditions used to minizime 
these effects.

Thanks ever so much for the help.
Best,
