Metabolic probes for imaging endosymbiotic bacteria within toxic dinoflagellates.
Fluorescence microscopy offers an important tool for the study of complex biological phenomena such as symbiosis. Here we identify a strategy that adapts the unique differences between the secondary metabolism in host and guest symbiotic species to selectively image endosymbiotic organisms. The method is demonstrated by application to the complex symbiotic relationships in toxic marine dinoflag...
متن کاملLizhbeth: Toward Autonomous Toxic Algae Bloom Monitoring
With the recent increase of toxic algal blooms in lakes, biologists are looking for new sampling methods to analyze their spatiotemporal dynamics. In this paper, we present an Autonomous Surface Vessel (ASV) capable of achieving longterm sampling missions covering up to now a transect plane (1.5 km wide and 20m deep). The ASV is equipped with a probe which can be lowered via a winch to measure ...
متن کاملPhytoplankton-Associated Bacterial Community Composition and Succession during Toxic Diatom Bloom and Non-Bloom Events
Pseudo-nitzschia blooms often occur in coastal and open ocean environments, sometimes leading to the production of the neurotoxin domoic acid that can cause severe negative impacts to higher trophic levels. Increasing evidence suggests a close relationship between phytoplankton bloom and bacterial assemblages, however, the microbial composition and succession during a bloom process is unknown. ...
متن کاملToxic substance from a natural bloom of Microcystis aeruginosa.
A toxic substance contained in the blue-green alga Microcystis aeruginosa was purified and partially characterized. Toxic algal cells were collected from a highly eutrophic lake in Japan, and the toxin was purified by homogenization, ultrafiltration, gel filtration, and ion-exchange chromatography. The final preparation gave a single peak on high-performance liquid chromatography. The toxicity ...
متن کاملAutonomous Surface Vessel for Toxic Cyanobacteria Bloom Examination
Scientists of the limnological station in Kilchberg, Switzerland are surveing the bloom of the toxic cyanobacteria in the lake of Zurich. So far, measurements have only been taken at a specific point on the lake. For better spatial understanding of the bloom in relation with geological changes, an Autonomous Surface Vessel (ASV) is being developed. This ASV is equipped with a probe which can be...
