Chemical and Spectroscopic Characterization of Algae Surfaces

Abstract: The surfaces of two algae species (Cyclotella cryptica, diatom; Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, green alga) were characterized with regard to their interactions with copper. Chemical and spectroscopic methods (FT-IR, continuous-wave EPR, and two-pulse ESEEM) gave information about the kinds of functional groups (-NH2, R-COOH, R-OH, and Si-OH) on the surfaces of the algae. Maximum proton binding capacities of 9.7 × 10-4 and 9.1 × 10-4 mol/g algae (dry weight) were determined for C. cryptica and C. reinhardtii, respe… Show more

“…The bands about 1250 cm -1 , represent -SO 3 stretching. The double peak at 1038 and 1079 cm -1 is probably caused by C-O stretching vibrations of alcoholic groups in carbohydrates [23]. L. hyperborea and B. bifurcata behave differently from the other two species in the wavenumber range 1600 -4000 cm -1 .…”

“…Varied analytical apparatuses have been used for the characterisation of diatom frustules counting from scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), confocal microscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray scattering (SAXS), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) [14][15][16][17][18][19]. Conventionally, SEM and TEM are most frequently used in the study of diatom morphology and taxonomy.…”

“…No caso da bioacumulação a interação entre o metal e o microrganismo se dá através do seu metabolismo. Na biossorção a captura dos íons metálicos pela biomassa é um processo que se dá por interações físico-químicas entre os íons e os grupos funcionais que se encontram na superfície do biossorvente (Kiefer, Sigg et al 1997). …”
