Photoprotective properties of PHB granules
Hesko, Ondrej ; Obruča, Stanislav (referee) ; Mravec, Filip (advisor)
The objective of this work is study and design of physical-chemical methods for verification of photoprotective properties PHB inclusions using bacteria Cupriavidus necator H16 and its mutated bacteria strain Cupriavidus necator PHB-4 which differs in production capability of polyhydroxyalkanoates. Basic information about of polymer inslusions and methods used for proving photoprotectivity are discussed in theoretical part. Methods such as nephelometry and continous fluorescence microphotolysis (CMF), which is used to characterize the mechanism of interaction of light with inclusions, were optimized. In experimental part properties of light scattering in bacteria were determined and characteristic curves were obtained. Further the photostability of fluorescence probe specific for nucleic acids were compared in bacteria strains. This method should prove bigger tolerance of bacteria H16 for UV light. It should also define possible interaction of nucleic acids with PHB inclusions.
