Viability of lyophilized cyanobacteria (blue-green algae).
Lyophilizatin of 13 cyanobacterial cultures belonging to seven genera was attempted in a variety of suspending substances. All organisms survived lyophilization when suspended in lamb serum. Some of the organisms could be successfully lyophilized in horse serum, beef serum, fetal bovine serum, or human ascites fluid. With the exception of Nostoc muscorium, none of the organisms survived lyophil...
متن کاملEffect of interactions among algae on nitrogen fixation by blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) in flooded soils.
Nitrogen fixation (C(2)H(2) reduction) by algae in flooded soil was limited by interactions within the algal community. Nitrogen fixation by either indigenous algae or Tolypothrix tenuis was reduced severalfold by a dense suspension of the green alga Nephrocytium sp. Similarly, interactions between the nitrogen-fixing alga (cyanobacterium) Aulosira 68 and natural densities of indigenous algae l...
متن کاملThe Effect of Toxic Cyanobacteria (Blue-Green Algae) on Water Plants and Animal Cells
The eutrophication of the Sulejow reservoir dam in Poland is connected with the problem of toxicity of cyanobacterial blooming (blue-green algal blooming). The main species responsible for hepatotoxic "algal bloom" formation is Microcystis aeruginosa. The aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of the toxic cyanobacterial extract containing microcystins on the growth and morphology of a ...
متن کاملNitrogen fixation by thermophilic blue-green algae (cyanobacteria): temperature characteristics and potential use in biophotolysis.
Thermophilic, nitrogen-fixing, blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) were investigated for use in biophotolysis. Three strains of Mastigocladus laminosus were tested and were found to be equally effective in biophotolysis as judged by nitrogenase activity. The alga, M. laminosus NZ-86-m, which was chosen for further study, grew well in the temperature range from 35 to 50 degrees C, with optimum grow...
متن کاملDecomposition of blue-green algal (cyanobacterial) blooms in lake mendota, wisconsin.
Decomposition of natural populations of Lake Mendota phytoplankton dominated by blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) was monitored by using oxygen uptake and disappearance of chlorophyll, algal volume (fluorescence microscopy), particulate protein, particulate organic carbon, and photosynthetic ability (CO(2) up-take). In some experiments, decomposition of C-labeled axenic cultures of Anabaena sp. ...
