Komplementární analýza prokaryotických buněk pomocí elektronové mikroskopie a Ramanovy spektroskopie / Complementary analysis of procaryotic cells by electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy

This master thesis deals with conventional methods of bacterial cell analysis, polyhydroxyalkanoates, Raman spectroscopy and electron microscopy in the theoretical part. The production of polyhydroxybutyrate by selected thermophilic bacteria and their analysis by gas chromatography, cryogenic scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy is described in the experimental part. The chosen sample was analyzed by a transmission electron microscope. Comparing the results from previous mentioned methods it was found that the bacteria Schlegelella thermodepolymerans accumulated the highest amount of PHB. The lowest amount of PHB was obtained by bacteria Rubrobacter xylanophilus. The assumption that the PHB granules formed so-called needle-like plastic deformations during freeze-fracturing was affirmed by cryo-SEM photos analysis. Moreover, it was found that the bacterial cell characterization deduced from microscopic observation of samples corresponded to the description in the literature. TEM provided better resolution photos and in consequence the cells and PHB are more visible. The thesis is also focused on chemical fingerprint analysis of cells by Raman spectroscopy. Several biomolecules were identified by measured Raman spectra for the particular samples.
