A modification of the synchronization method forChlorella pyrenoidosa was suggested, based on the mechanical separation of small and large cells by differential centrifugation and dilution of the population after division to a constant density (maximally 3×106 cells/ml.). Using this system, with a 16-hour day and eight hours' darkness, the ontogenetic cycle ofChlorella pyrenoidosa takes 24 hours and synchronous growth and development can be maintained for eight generations. 相似文献

Summary The influence of the hydrogen-ion concentration on the growth and metabolism of a highly acid-resistant green alga, Chlorella ellipsoidea (strain Marburg St), was studied. Chlorella pyrenoidosa (Emerson strain) served as a normal control organism. Growth of Chlorella ellipsoidea occurs in the entire range from Ph 2.0 to Ph 10, whereas for Chlorella pyrenoidosa the limits were found to be Ph 3.5 and Ph 10. Respiration is much less sensitive to hydrogen-ion concentration in the acid-resistant as compared to the normal strain. Thus an increase in acidity from Ph 4.0 to Ph 2.0 increases the respiratory oxygen uptake by 120% in Chlorella pyrenoidosa and by 25% in Chlorella ellipsoidea. In addition, only the less resistant Chlorella pyrenoidosa shows an accumulation of nitrite in the dark in acid culture media, indicating a disturbance of the normal course of nitrate reduction under these conditions. On the other hand, the rate of photosynthesis of both organisms was found to be almost independent of acidity between Ph 4.0 and Ph 2.0. At the acid and alkaline limits of growth in both algae, an inhibition of cell division leads to an increase of cell size and dry weight per cell, frequently connected with the occurrence of bizarre giant cells. — In addition, adaptation phenomena were found to play a role in determining the acid limit of growth. Cells of Chlorella ellipsoidea, after inoculation from normal medium (Ph about 6) into a solution of Ph 2.0, begin growth at a high rate only after a lag of about two weeks. Cells grown previously in an acid medium, however, immediately resume growth upon inoculation into a medium of Ph 2.0. This adaptation involves a considerable reduction of cell size. 相似文献

Influence of Deleterious Concentrations of Copper on the Growth of Chlorella pyrenoidosa 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The effect of deleterious concentrations of ionic Cu on the growth of Chlorella pyrenoidosa has been studied. An earlier paper showed a distinct effect of the same concentrations on the photosynthesis of the alga. Several substances, e.g. Fe and citric acid counteract the effect of Cu. In media ordinarily used for growing unicellular algae the influence of Cu is relatively slight due to the extraordinarily large concentrations. of Fe. At a concentration of 6 μg/I Fe – near to that in nature –even one μg/I Cu significantly decreases the growth during the first 24 hours. Cu is adsorbed to the negative charges on micelles of Fe(OH)3 created in the alkaline medium. Citric acid is readily assimilated by Chlorella and thus counteracts the influence of Cu for only relatively short period. Cell concentration is of decisive importance for the deleterious influence of Cu on growth. The effect of a certain Cu concentration stops at a certain concentration of of the algae regardless of whether the experiment is started at this cell concentration or this concentration is attained during the experiment. This is due to the binding of Cu by the organic matter of cell walls and slime envelopes. H+ ions compete with Cu both when combining with the organic matter in the cell walls and when occupying the active sites of the cell membranes. The latter explains the fact that the influence of Cu is only slight at pH 5 compared with that at pH 8. At a Cu-concentration where no growth of algae can take place, the algae are by no means killed. After being transferred to an ordinary medium the algae start to grow again. The influence of Cu depends on the division stage of the algae. If the initial steps of cell division have taken place, the cell continues to divide. 相似文献

Microalgae are product of sustainable development owing to its ability to treat variety of wastewater effluents and thus produced biomass can serve as value added product for various commercial applications. This paper deals with the cultivation of microalgae species namely Chlorella pyrenoidosa and Scenedesmus abundans in rice mill effluent (i.e., paddy soaked water) for nutrient removal. In order to investigate the nutrient removal capability, microalgae are subjected to cultivation in both raw and autoclaved samples. The maximum phosphate removal by Scenedesmus abundans and Chlorella pyrenoidosa in raw sample was 98.3% and 97.6%, respectively, whereas, the removal of ammoniacal nitrogen by Scenedesmus abundans and Chlorella pyrenoidosa in raw sample was 92% and 90.3%, respectively. The growth (measured in terms of chlorophyll content) of Scenedesmus abundans and Chlorella pyrenoidosa in raw sample was 3.88 mg/l and 5.55 mg/l, respectively. The results indicate the suitability of microalgae cultivation in rice mill effluent treatment for nutrient removal. 相似文献

Heterotrophic production of ascorbic acid by microalgae 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
An aerobic fermentation process has been developed for the production of L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C). After an extensive screening program for microorganisms capable of heterotrophically synthesizing L-ascorbic acid, a unicellular green microalga,Chlorella pyrenoidosa, was selected. This organism has a number of characteristics that recommend it as an industrial organism: (1) it can double every 3.5 h when growing aerobically in the dark on a glucose-minimal salts medium; (2) its small size and tough cell wall make it very insensitive to shear, allowing very high impeller velocities; (3) it can be grown to 100 g L–1 cell dry weight; (4) it is readily mutable by classical mutagenesis techniques; and (5) it has efficient growth kinetics with respect to yield of cell mass on glucose and oxygen. Fermentation process development and classical strain improvement have resulted in a greater than 70-fold increase in intracellular ascorbic acid concentration compared to the parent strainC. pyrenoidosa UTEX 1663. The process is compatible with existing industrial fermentation technology and equipment and is described in U.S. Patent 5,001,059. Patents have been submitted for a process in which the ascorbic acid accumulates extracellularly. 相似文献

The effect of mercury ions on the photosynthesis and growth of Chlorella pyrenoidosa in a balanced medium has been studied and compared with the effect of copper. In many ways Hg treated algae behave like algae treated with Cu in concentrations of the same molarity, but important deviations occur. Hg acts at a lower and in a more narrow range of concentrations than does Cu due to a more specific binding. The depressing effect of Hg is not counteracted by other cations such as potassium and sodium, and iron has only a slight effect. Cell division is stopped after Hg addition and there is no accumulation of assimilation products. On the contrary the cells become pale yellow. Preliminary studies indicate a light-independent leakage in the cytoplasmatic membrane leading to an outflow of potassium ions. This is the primary action of both Hg and Cu poisoning, but the leakage does not seem to be correlated with the decrease of photosynthesis. After a lapse of time — dependent on the mercury/cell concentration ratio — a detoxication takes place probably due to the binding of Hg to “insensitive sites” in the cells. Probable mechanisms for the action of Hg on photosynthesis and growth are discussed. 相似文献

A homogeneous population of "giant" cells of the EMERSON strainof Chlorella vulgaris, produced following culture under carefullycontrolled conditions in a glucose medium in the dark, recoversits capacity to undergo cell division when returned to autotrophicconditions. A similar recovery also occurs after a prolongedperiod of culture in the dark. The division of the giant cellsis accompanied, in each case, by marked pigment synthesis anda consequent recovery of photosynthetic capacity. Under autotrophicconditions the recovery of cell division and restoration ofthe full pigment concentration are complete within a 24 hr period.The recovery which takes place in a glucose medium in the darkoccurs only after a period of 1014 days growth.

The coarse of growth and cell division in synchronized cultures of Chlorella pyrenoidosa was studied after the addition of metabolic inhibitors at differing times during the cell cycle (14 h light - 10 h darkness with nitrate as nitrogen source. 12 h light: 12 h darkness with urea as nitrogen source). Dinitrophenol (DNP) added to a final concentration of 0.3 mM at any time in the synchronization cycle, the compound remaining in the suspension from the time of addition to the end of the dark period, inhibited spore formation completely. Growth measured as increase in cell volume was less sensitive to the action of the inhibitor. Chloramphenicol (CAP) added dining the 0–5 h interval to a final concentration of 0.1 mM resulted in 80 per cent inhibition of cell division. Similar treatment started at successive times thereafter resulted in a gradual decrease of the inhibition. Treatment at the 14th hour and during the dark period did not affect the sporulation. Similar experiments with 0.9 mM puromycin added at various times during the illumination period gave almost complete inhibition of cell division, while the growth was reduced by only 25 per cent. para-Fluorophenylalanine (p-FPhe) at 3.3 × 10?2 mM stopped cell division nearly completely irrespective of addition time in the light period. Addition during the dark period also prevented an increase in the number of tree cells. In this case about half of the cells produced spores which were not released. It is concluded that DNP inhibits all stages of preparation for cell division, as well as the division process itself. With CAP a genuine transition point of preparation for cell division was observed, although its interpretation as related to protein synthesis is somewhat uncertain. With puromycin and p-FPhe no transitions were observed. 相似文献

Phytohormone effects on cell division of synchronous cultures ofChlorella pyrenoidosa (TX-7-11-05) were studied under different photo flux densities. The time required for initiation of incipient cell division was reduced significantly by treatment with kinetin (6-furfurylaminopurine), gibberellic acid, and indole-3-acetic acid. Data show that kinetin was more effective than gibberellic acid, which was more effective than indole-3-acetic acid. Studies with combinations of the phytohormones revealed no antagonistic, additive, or synergistic effects. 相似文献

Lipoteichoic acid (LTA) is an important cell wall component of Gram‐positive bacteria. In Staphylococcus aureus it consists of a polyglycerolphosphate‐chain that is retained within the membrane via a glycolipid. Using an immunofluorescence approach, we show here that the LTA polymer is not surface exposed in S. aureus, as it can only be detected after digestion of the peptidoglycan layer. S. aureus mutants lacking LTA are enlarged and show aberrant positioning of septa, suggesting a link between LTA synthesis and the cell division process. Using a bacterial two‐hybrid approach, we show that the three key LTA synthesis proteins, YpfP and LtaA, involved in glycolipid production, and LtaS, required for LTA backbone synthesis, interact with one another. All three proteins also interacted with numerous cell division and peptidoglycan synthesis proteins, suggesting the formation of a multi‐enzyme complex and providing further evidence for the co‐ordination of these processes. When assessed by fluorescence microscopy, YpfP and LtaA fluorescent protein fusions localized to the membrane while the LtaS enzyme accumulated at the cell division site. These data support a model whereby LTA backbone synthesis proceeds in S. aureus at the division site in co‐ordination with cell division, while glycolipid synthesis takes place throughout the membrane. 相似文献

Microalgae are very useful organisms as it provides many beneficial products for human use. For large scale cultivation and further applications, its harvesting procedure needs to be enhanced to make the production process of the end product highly affordable. Magnetic nanoparticles have great potential to harvest microalgae as it can easily attract and attach to the algal cell surface forming a layer, which can be harvested quickly under the influence of a magnetic field. Our work on Chlorella pyrenoidosa and Chlorella minutissima shows, 500 mg of the synthesized bare iron oxide nanoparticles, harvests 90% of Chlorella pyrenoidosa (1 g L?1), in 60 s at pH 3 and 600 mg iron oxide nanoparticles, harvests 85% of Chlorella minutissima (1 g L?1) in 60 s at pH 5, which can decrease the amount of time and energy consumed in the overall production costs. 相似文献

Photosynthetic activity and organization of chlorophyll(Chl)-protein complexes in a temperature sensitive mutant of Chlorella pyrenoidosa have been investigated. The mutant is practically indistinguishable from wild type cells when grown at 25 C. However, mutant cells grown at 33 C do not synthesize Chl and lose their ability to evolve O2. O2 evolution and Chl synthesis are restored upon incubation of the 33 C grown cells at 25 C in absence of cell division (repair). 相似文献

Summary The composition and synthesis of DNA in synchronous cultures of Chlorella pyrenoidosa strain 211/8b has been investigated. Analytical CsCl density gradient centrifugation gave a homogenous major DNA component with a (G+C) content of 51% and a minor component containing 28% (G+C). The (G+C) contents derived from melting profiles were 2–3% lower. A second minor component with approximately 41% (G+C) content was inferred from banding patterns of labelled DNA in preparative CsCl density gradients.
14C-uracil was readily incorporated into the pyrimidine moieties of the major (nuclear) DNA between the 10th and 18th hour after beginning of the light period, but not at any other time. 14C-uracil incorporation into the minor (satellite) component was low but continuous throughout the whole cell cycle. The incorporation is correlated with an increase in the proportion of satellite DNA from 6% up to 20% during the time when no nuclear DNA replication takes place. The results suggest that different regulatory mechanisms exist for the nuclear and for satellite DNA synthesis. 相似文献

Summary Increasing blue light intensity inhibits the growth of Chlorella pyrenoidosa in glucose culture in which photosynthesis is blocked by DCMU, whereas red light supports growth which is the same as or better than that in dark controls.The action spectrum of light induced protein synthesis from exogenous glucose (photosynthesis inhibited, blue light addition resulting in growth >90% of the dark control) shows only one broad maximum at 450–490 nm which resembles the absorption spectrum of carotenoids. 相似文献

The microalga Chlorella pyrenoidosa is cultivated extensively for its constituents, which are of significant economic worth. Large-scale growth of C. pyrenoidosa in outdoor environments is subject to various stressors such as elevated temperature. The purpose of this study was to assess the protective effects of exogenous 24-epibrassinolide (EBL) on C. pyrenoidosa under high-temperature conditions. Compared to a temperature of 30°C, increasing the temperature to 43°C reduced the enzymatic capacity for carbon assimilation and resulted in the buildup of reactive oxygen species (ROS), thus reducing photosynthesis and proliferation. It was observed that exogenous EBL protected C. pyrenoidosa cells against high temperatures, with an optimal EBL concentration of 100 nM, resulting in enhanced capacity for photosynthetic carbon assimilation with a notable reduction in the imbalance between the absorption of light and energy used under high-temperature conditions. The addition of 100 nM EBL resulted in a 25.4% increase in cell density when exposed to elevated temperatures for 7 days. In addition, exogenous EBL reduced ROS production and increased the activities of critical antioxidant enzymes. This, in turn, mitigated heat-induced oxidative damage, resulting in advantageous outcomes in terms of cellular development and maintenance. 相似文献

Interactions between Microcystis aeruginosa and Chlorella pyrenoidosa were analyzed by flow cytometry and by phytoplankton pulse‐amplitude‐modulated fluorimetry (Phyto‐PAM) in joint cultures as well as in cultures separated by dialysis membranes. Results showed that the growth of C. pyrenoidosa was greater than that of M. aeruginosa, and that the growth of M. aeruginosa but not the growth of C. pyrenoidosa was significantly inhibited by the interactions between M. aeruginosa and C. pyrenoidosa. Culture filtrates of these two algae showed no apparent effects on the growth of the competing species. For M. aeruginosa, decreases in esterase activity, chlorophyll a fluorescence, and maximum quantum yield were observed in joint cultures, indicating that the metabolic activity and photosynthetic capacity of M. aeruginosa were suppressed. Light limitation from the shading effect of C. pyrenoidosa may be the main reason for such inhibition. For C. pyrenoidosa, esterase activity was suppressed in membrane‐separated and joint cultures, suggesting that C. pyrenoidosa was probably affected by allelopathic substances secreted by M. aeruginosa. However, no significant difference was observed in the chlorophyll a fluorescence and maximum quantum yield of C. pyrenoidosa in the two cultures. In addition, interspecific interactions induced a reduction in size in both M. aeruginosa and C. pyrenoidosa, which may contribute to the development of C. pyrenoidosa dominance in the present study.

Synchronous cultures of Chlorella pyrenoidosa have been used in studies of the action of UV-irradiation during different stages in the life cycle on cell division capacity. These experiments show that there is a considerably higher sensitivity to UV-irradiation during the first hours of the life cycle. The variations in photoreactivating capacity of UV-damaged cells during a life cycle have been investigated. The results from these investigations show that the photoreactivating capacity varies and that it is higher in young daughter cells (autospores) and 12–15 hour cells. These variations can be due to variations in the activity of the photoreactivating enzyme during the life cycle. 相似文献

The Influence of Cu on Photosynthesis and Growth in Diatoms 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Cu in ionic form in a balanced medium affects the rate of photosynthesis and growth in the diatom Nitzschia palea in about the same way as in the green alga Chlorella pyrenoidosa. Remarkable differences are found, however. Small concentrations of Cu influence the rate of photosynthesis considerably more in the diatom than in the green alga whereas the opposite is the case concerning growth. The latter is most likely a consequence of excretion of organic matter by the diatom in presence of Cu whereas this does not take place in Chlorella. Some of the excreted organic matter may bind Cu and thus make the medium suitable for growth. Although pre-treatment with Cu in the dark has no influence on the subsequent rate of photosynthesis in the light, organic matter is excreted in the dark immediately after the addition of Cu. The influence of Cu on the rate of photosynthesis varies by a factor of about 30 according to the stage of growth in a synchronized culture. 相似文献

Leaf growth consists of two basic processes, cell division and cell enlargement. DNA synthesis is an integral part of cell division and can be studied with autoradiographic techniques and incorporation of some labeled precursor. Studies were made on the synthesis of nuclear DNA through incorporation of 3H-thymidine in various parts of the lamina during the entire course of leaf development of Xanthium pennsylvanicum. The time course analysis of DNA synthesis was correlated with cell division and rates of cell enlargement. Significant differences in 3H-thymidine incorporation were found in various parts of the lamina. Cell division and DNA synthesis were highest in the early stages of development. Since no 3H-thymidine was incorporated after cessation of cell division (LPI 2.8) in the leaf lamina, it appears that DNA synthesis is not needed for enlargement and differentiation of Xanthium cells. Rates of cell enlargement were negligible in the early development and reached their maximum after cessation of mitoses, between plastochron ages (LPI) 3 and 4. Cells matured between LPI's 5 and 6. Enzymatic activity was correlated with cell division and cell differentiation at various stages of leaf development. 相似文献
