title: Isolation and characterization of dissolved organic matter fractions from antialgal products of Microcystis aeruginosa.
abstract: An antialgal bacterium, Streptomyces sp. HJC-D1, was applied for the biodegradation of cyanobacterium Microcystis aeruginosa, and the isolation and characterization of dissolved organic matter (DOM) fractions in antialgal products were studied. Results showed the the growth of M. aeruginosa was significantly inhibited by the cell-free filtrate of Streptomyces sp. HJC-D1 with the growth inhibition of 86 ± 7 %. The antialgal products were divided using resin adsorbents into the hydrophilic fraction (HPI), hydrophobic acid (HPO-A), transphilic acid (TPI-A), hydrophobic neutral and transphilic neutral, and then the five fractions were analyzed by the 3-D fluorescence spectroscopy, gel permeation chromatography, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The results indicated that the HPI component was the most abundant DOM fraction in the antialgal products, and its concentration was increased with the increase of cell-free filtrate concentration. The fluorescence peak location and intensity analysis showed that the protein-, fulvic-, and humic-like substances were dominant in the HPI, HPO-A, and TPI-A fractions, and intensities of the relevant fluorescence peaks were stronger in the experimental groups than those of the control groups. It was also found that the number-average molecular weight of DOM fractions ranged from 245 to 1,452 g mol(-1), and thereinto organic acids such as HPO-A and TPI-A exhibited lower molecular weights.
