[Abstract]  This protocol provides a detailed description of how to fabricate and use the dual-flow-RootChip (dfRootChip), a novel microfluidic platform for investigating root nutrition, root-microbe interactions and signaling and development in controlled asymmetric conditions. The dfRootChip was developed primarily to investigate how plants roots interact with their environment by simulating environmental heterogeneity. The goal of this protocol is to provide a detailed resource for researchers in the biological sciences wishing to employ the dfRootChip in particular, or microfluidic devices in general, in their laboratory. [摘要]  该协议提供了如何制造和使用双流RootChip(dfRootChip)的详细描述,这是一种新型微流体平台,用于研究根管营养,根 - 微生物相互作用以及受控不对称条件下的信号传导和发育。 dfRootChip的开发主要是为了研究植物根系如何通过模拟环境异质性与环境相互作用。 该协议的目标是为希望在其实验室中特别使用dfRootChip或一般微流体装置的生物科学研究人员提供详细资源。

【背景】地下条件是高度异质和动态的,因此植物根部暴露于各种刺激,因此必须适应这种复杂的环境。尽管这些发展适应的重要性,但潜在的机制仍有待阐明。微流体装置已被证明可用于在受控的微环境中培养标本,并有助于从亚细胞到有机物水平的动态过程的实时成像(Crane 等人,,2010)。由于微流体可以以受控方式操纵小流体体积,以高通量进行实验,提取定量信息并进行延时测量,微流体装置已经进入了有机体研究。对于模式植物拟南芥,已经开发了一系列微流体装置,能够在根发育过程中监测基因表达(Busch et al。,2012),信号事件(Keinath et al。,2015)和基于传感器的营养摄取成像(Grossmann et al。,2011; Lanquar et al。, 2014)。此外,使用微流体平台的最新进展包括高分辨率表型分析(Jiang et al。,2014; Xing ...

[Abstract]  There is a pressing need to develop sustainable and efficient methods to protect and stabilize iron objects. To develop a conservation-restoration method for corroded iron objects, this bio-protocol presents the steps to investigate reductive dissolution of ferric iron and biogenic production of stabilizing ferrous iron minerals in the strict anaerobe Desulfitobacterium hafniense (strains TCE1 and LBE). We investigated iron reduction using three different Fe(III) sources: Fe(III)-citrate (a soluble phase), akaganeite (solid iron phase), and corroded coupons. This protocol describes a method that combines spectrophotometric quantification of the complex Fe(II)-Ferrozine® with mineral characterization by scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. These three ... [摘要]  迫切需要开发可持续和有效的方法来保护和稳定铁制物体。为了开发腐蚀铁物体的保护 - 恢复方法,该生物方案提出了研究严格厌氧菌[Desulfitobacterium hafniense (菌株TCE1)中三价铁的还原溶解和稳定亚铁矿物质的生物产生的步骤。和LBE)。我们使用三种不同的Fe(III)来源研究了铁还原:Fe(III) - 柠檬酸盐(可溶相),akaganeite(固体铁相)和腐蚀的试样。该协议描述了一种方法,该方法结合了复杂的Fe(II)-Ferrozine ®的分光光度定量,通过扫描电子显微镜和拉曼光谱进行矿物表征。这三种方法可以评估三价铁的还原溶解和生物矿物质生产,作为开发一种创新的可持续方法来稳定腐蚀铁的有希望的替代方法。

【背景】自铁器时代以来,铁已被用于生产日常用具。因此,考古学上的铁试验是过去极其重要的证据,应予以保留。然而,由于其反应性,铁容易被腐蚀并且考古铁物体可能被完全损坏。埋藏时,铁制品会根据埋葬地点的环境条件形成复杂的腐蚀层。挖掘后,条件发生变化,腐蚀层变得不稳定。为避免完全破坏,考古铁制物需要快速稳定处理。目前,可用的稳定化处理不能提供长期保护并且具有实质性缺点,例如毒性,低效率和大量废物的产生(Scott和Eggert,2009; Rimmer 等人, 2012)。因此,有必要开发新技术来稳定考古铁器。

越来越多地考虑利用微生物代谢来开发更有效,可持续和环保的保护 ...

In vivo and in vitro 31P-NMR Study of the Phosphate Transport and Polyphosphate Metabolism in Hebeloma cylindrosporum in Response to Plant Roots Signals

[Abstract]  We used in vivo and in vitro phosphorus-31 nuclear magnetic resonance (31P-NMR) spectroscopy to follow the change in transport, compartmentation and metabolism of phosphate in the ectomycorrhizal fungus Hebeloma cylindrosporum in response to root signals originating from host (Pinus pinaster) or non-host (Zea mays) plants. A device was developed for the in vivo studies allowing the circulation of a continuously oxygenated mineral solution in an NMR tube containing the mycelia. The in vitro studies were performed on fungal material after several consecutive treatment steps (freezing in liquid nitrogen; crushing with perchloric acid; elimination of perchloric acid; freeze-drying; dissolution in an appropriate liquid ... [摘要]  我们使用体内和体外磷-31核磁共振( 31 P-NMR)光谱来跟踪运输,分区和 外生菌根真菌 Hebeloma cylindrosporum 中的磷酸盐代谢响应来自宿主( Pinus pinaster )或非宿主( Zea mays )的根信号植物。 开发了一种用于体内研究的装置,其允许连续氧化的矿物质溶液在含有菌丝体的NMR管中循环。 在几个连续的处理步骤(在液氮中冷冻;用高氯酸压碎;消除高氯酸;冷冻干燥;在适当的液体培养基中溶解)后,对真菌材料进行体外研究。

【背景】 菌根真菌和植物之间的关联改善了宿主植物的P营养(Smith和Read,2008; Plassard和Dell,2010; Cairney,2011; Smith 等人,,2015)。这种积极效应主要归因于真菌菌丝对磷酸盐(Pi)的吸收,探测了在活跃吸收根周围的耗竭区以外的大量土壤(Smith和Read,2008; Cairney,2011; Smith et al。< em="">,2015)和真菌细胞分泌细胞外磷酸酶(Quiquampoix和Mousain,2005)。吸收的Pi部分地掺入磷酸化的代谢物,磷脂和核酸中,并且部分地浓缩成多磷酸盐(PolyP),其中它们构成液泡中的储存池(Ashford 等人,,1994)。该协议详述了一种装置,该装置允许通过 31 ...
