摘要

Abstract

The increasing occurrence of cyanobacterial blooms in water bodies is a serious threat to the environment. Efficient in-lake treatment methods for the control of cyanobacteria proliferation are needed

their in-vivo detection to obtain a real-time response to their presence

as well as the information about their physiological state after the applied treatment. In-vivo fluorescence measurements of photosynthetic pigments have proved to be effective for quantitative and qualitative detection of phytoplankton in a water environment. In the experiment

chlorophyll and phycocyanin fluorescence sensors were used concurrently to detect stress caused by electrochemical oxidation applying an electrolytic cell equipped with borondoped diamond electrodes on a laboratory culture of cyanobacteria

Microcystis aeruginosa

PCC 7806. The inflicted injuries were reflected in a clear transient increase in the phycocyanin fluorescence signal (for 104%±43%) 24 h after the treatment

which was not the case for the chlorophyll fluorescence signal. In the next 72 h of observation

the fluorescence signals decreased (on 40% of the starting signal) indicating a reduction of cell number

which was confirmed by cell count (24% reduction of the starting concentration) and analysis of extracted chlorophyll and phycocyanin pigment. These results demonstrate the viability of the combined application of two sensors as a useful tool for in-vivo detection of induced stress

providing real-time information needed for the evaluation of the efficiency of the in-lake treatment and decision upon the necessity of its repetition. The electrochemical treatment also resulted in a lower free microcystins concentration compared to control.
