Studies on the cryopreservation and in vitro culture of Amyloodinium ocellatum

Yang, Chu-Ya 04 August 2006 (has links)
The Amyloodinium ocellatum was collected from cobia ( Rachycentron canadum ) gill and four tests including 4 ¢J storage, toxicity of cryoprotectant, cryopreservation and in vitro cultivation on fish cell line were conducted to establish the methods of preservation of Amyloodinium ocellatum. Survival of trophont, morphology and division of tomont and number of dinospore released were evaluated the effects of this study. The results showed that division irregulated, delayed and stopped of the tomont were found after stored at 4 ¢J over 48 hours. It was produced 1.08 x 10 4 cell/ml dinospores from 1 x 10 3 trophont at 4 ¢J, 24 hours storage group and significant higher ( p¡Õ0.0001 ) than other storage groups. For the toxicity of cryoprotectant, the concentration of DMSO 3~10¢M, Glycerol 3~10¢M, Methanol 3~10¢M, Ethanol 3~5¢M, PrOH 3~5¢M, DMAc 3~5¢M, Sucrose 3~15¢M, Trehalose 3~15¢M, Dextran 3~5¢Mand Ficoll 3~10¢Mwere safety to use on A. ocellatum trophont preservation. It was unsuccessful to cryopreserve the trophont of A. ocellatum when stored at direct liquid N2 freezing, different -20 ¢J freezing time, -1 ¢J min-1 freezing container and different cryoprotectant equilibration time contain 10¢MGlycerol and DMSO, respectively. Using the U-shaped tube of sigle and double loop could gain pure and bacteria-free dinospores. The results of in vitro cultivation of A. ocellatum showed that eel epidermis and cobia fin cell line with different culture mediums were unable to grow the trophont and tomont of A. ocellatum.

Anwendung des Comet Assay (Einzelzell-Gelelektrophorese) an Zellen von Fischen zum Nachweis gentoxischer Wirkungen im aquatischen Biomonitoring

Nehls, Sebastian 14 October 2013 (has links)
Gewässer sind Lebensgrundlage, jedoch gleichzeitig Schadstoffsenken für eine Vielzahl von Kontaminanten. Biologische Wirkungstests und das Biomonitoring aquatischer Proben sind daher besonders wichtig, um Umwelt-Gefahrenpotenziale erkennen zu können. Der "Comet Assay" (Einzelzell-Gelelektrophorese) ist ein Indikator von DNA-Strangbrüchen und wurde hier als Test auf gentoxische Wirkungen erprobt und angewandt. Mit bekannten, gentoxischen Substanzen wurden Nachweisgrenzen und Dosis-Wirkungs-Beziehungen für die Zelllinien RTG-2 und RTL-W1 (aus der Regenbogenforelle, Oncorhynchus mykiss) in vitro ermittelt und methodische Parameter an die Zellen angepasst. Der Test reagierte sehr sensitiv auf 4-Nitrochinolin-1-oxid. Die Substanz war daher geeignet, um in weiteren Versuchen als Positivkontrolle zu dienen. Zur Bewertung der Messdaten wurde ein geeignetes statistisches Verfahren gefunden, das auch historische Kontrollen mit einbezog. Der zeitliche Verlauf der DNA-Schädigung des Testsystems mit RTG-2-Zellen wurde ermittelt, und durch Inhibition der DNA-Reparatur mit Aphidicolin wurden Zusammenhänge zwischen der Entstehung von DNA-Strangbrüchen, der DNA-Reparaturkapazität sowie der Metabolisierungskapazität untersucht. In einer zweiten Phase wurden unbehandelte Wasserproben aus Rhein, Elbe sowie weitere Oberflächenwasserproben mit dem Comet Assay an RTG-2-Zellen getestet. Bei 15 von 49 Proben zeigten sich gentoxische Effekte. In einer dritten Phase wurden Erythrozyten von freilebenden Döbeln, Leuciscus cephalus, aus der Mosel mit dem Comet Assay untersucht. Die Fische von drei Messstellen zeigten erhöhte Werte von DNA-Schädigungen, gegenüber einer vierten, stromabwärts gelegenen Messstation. Korrelationen mit den Ergebnissen zusätzlicher Biomarker ergaben sich nur teilweise. Chemische Analysen von Wasser- oder Gewebeproben ließen keine Rückschlüsse auf verursachende Kontaminanten zu - gerade dies unterstreicht jedoch die Wichtigkeit biologischer Tests bei komplexen Proben. / Bodies of Water are both vital resources and pollutant sinks for a multitude of contaminants. Therefore, biological effect tests and biomonitoring of aquatic samples are of particular importance to detect potential environmental hazards. The "comet assay" (single cell gel electrophoresis) is an indicator for DNA strand breaks and was explored and applied as a genotoxicity test in the present study. Known genotoxic substances were used to determine the detection limits and dose-response relationships for the cell lines RTG-2 and RTL-W1 (from rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss) in vitro, and to adapt methodological parameters to the cells. The test was very sensitive to 4-Nitroquinoline-1-oxide. This substance was therefore well-suited to serve as positive control in further experiments. In order to evaluate the measurement data, an appropriate statistical procedure was developed, which also took "historical" controls into account. The time course of DNA damage in the test system using RTG-2 cells was determined, and relationships between the origin of DNA strand breaks, DNA repair capacity and the metabolizing capacity of the cells was investigated by means of inhibition of DNA repair with Aphidicoline. In the second stage, native water samples from the rivers Rhine and Elbe and further surface waters were tested with the comet assay, using RTG-2 cells. 15 out of 49 samples showed genotoxic effects. In a third stage, erythrocytes of feral chub, Leuciscus cephalus, from the Moselle river were examined with the comet assay. The fish from three measuring stations showed elevated values of DNA damage compared to fish sampled from a downstream station. There were only partly correlations with the results from additional biomarkers. Chemical analyses of water and tissue samples did not permit conclusions on effect-causing substances.However, this emphasizes the importance of biological tests in dealing with complex environmental samples.
