Detekce a monitoring potenciálně toxických sinicových lipopeptidů
BÁRTOVÁ, Marie
The aim of this study was to design and optimize new PCR primers for detection of potential cyanobacterial producers of cytotoxic lipopeptides puwainaphycins and minutissamides in environmental samples. Samples from two distinct localities were tested, as suggested based on preliminary data. The first set of samples consisted of cyanobacterial soil biofilms from sheep pastures affected by Alveld illness in Norway. The other one contained samples of planktic cyanobacaterial blooms from Protected Landscape Area Třeboň and its vicinity. Three different approaches were used for evaluation of the presence of cyanobacterial lipopeptide producers: microscopy, PCR with the designed primeres, and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis. Results of this study confirmed the specificity of the newly designed PCR primers. The presence of producers of puwainaphycins/minutissamides was proven at both tested localities.
