Vliv magnetického pole a dalších vybraných stresorů na fyziologii mikrobiálních buněk / The effect of magnetic field and other selected stressors on physiology of bacterial cells

This thesis deals with the effect of magnetic field and organic substances, namely benzene and p-nitrophenol, on cell of PHA producing bacteria Cupriavidus necator H16 and mutant strain Cupriavidus necator PHB4, which does not produce polyhydroxyalkanoates. Static magnetic field was generated by both permanent magnet and electromagnet. The effect of magnetic field on the growth of bacterial cells was studied using growth curves. It was found that cultivation in magnetic field and mineral medium mostly inhibits bacterial growth. Also the amount of polyhydroxyalkanoates was observed using FT-IR, flow cytometry and microscopy with fluorescent dye. Growth curves and flow cytometry were also used to study the influence of organic substances on bacterial cells. It was found that while benzene does not affect either C. necator H16 or C. necator PHB4, p-nitrophenol acts as the inhibitor of bacterial growth for both cultures. Finally the impact of p-nitrophenol on the accumulation of PHA was studied using gas chromatography.
