reflexs viii 3.2 Filaments in the Zarrouk’s medium from stationary cell culture We conducted to with total 10 single filaments, including filaments C005 str and filaments Central Lab str In C005 str, it has filaments that fragment (rate 40%) and filaments change the color (Fig 3.4) when we collect picture from our experiment In Central Lab str, it has filaments that fragment (rate 60%) and filaments change the color (Fig 3.4) So, based this rate, we can easily see, the strain Central Lab is still able to grow faster To prove in detail, we continually compare the growth length, fragmentation time, the growth rate of single filament of each strain Additionally, to find the cause that the phenomenon of color change of these two strains We think that the main reason which the environment lacked nutrients Because, the medium was filted when cell cultured in the station phase Figure 3.4 The phenomenon color- changed filaments of C005 str (a) and Central Lab str (b) 25 3.2.1 Comparison of growth length of single filaments before fragmenting The growth length of single filaments of each strain which they are different We realize that the length of C005 str is longer than Central Lab str It is demonstrated based on graph, average and SD of each strain (Fig 3.5) The both mother filaments of C005 str are longer than mother filaments of the Central Lab star The mother filament is 920.160 µm (date 3/3-C005) the longest and 476.117 µm the shortest (date 19/3-Central Lab) Following, we compared the growth length of offspring of each strain In C005 str, the length is 527.470 µm (date 13/3-off 2) the longest and 360.160 µm (date 13/3-off 1) the shortest In Central Lab str, the length is 546.214 µm (date 16/3-off 1) the longest and 385.715 µm (date 19/3-off 1) the shortest So, we found that the growth length of filaments of the Central Lab str is equivalent Figure 3.5 Compare growth length of single filaments when they were cultured in medium from stationary cell culture 3.2.2 Compare fragmentation time of single filament Fragmentation time of C005 str is shorter than Central Lab str It was demonstrated by average, SD, time that showed Fig 3.5 We can easily realize that fragmentation time of the Central Lab str is five times longer than C005 str In C005 str, maximum time is 390 minutes (date 3/3off 1&2) and minimum time is 120 minute (date 6/3-off 1) In Central Lab str, maximum time is 2070 minute (date 19/3-off 2) and minimum time is 150 minutes (date 16/3-off 1) Furthermore, growth length and fermentation time of the two strains are inverse proportion together 26 Figure 3.6 Comparison of fragmentation time of single filaments when they were cultured in medium from stationary cell culture 3.2.3 Comparison of growth rate of single filaments We observed the development of two filaments of C005 str and three filaments of the Central Lab str As mentioned the rate above, we realize that the growth rate of Central Lab is faster than C005 str, to make sure for this hypothesis We compared the growth rate of offspring of the Central Lab str and C005 str that showed Fig 3.6 Figure 3.7 Compare the growth rate of single filaments when they were cultured in medium from stationary cell culture 27 In C005 str, growth rate of filaments is 7.940 µm/min (date 3/3-off 2) the fastest and 3.441 µm/min (date 3/3-off 1) the slowest In Central Lab str, the growth rate of filaments is 150.080 µm/min (date 31/3-off 1) the fastest and 18.612 µm/min (date 16/3-off 2) the slowest Additionally, we can based on average and SD of each strain The growth rate of Central Lab str is nearly 20 times higher than C005 str The basic information of each strain in Zarrouk’s medium from stationary cell culture and showed table 3.2 Table 3.2 Basic information of each Arthrospira platensis single filaments in the modified Zarrouk’s medium from stationary cell culture 3.3 Compare growth rate of the same strain in the modified standard Zarrouk’s media and Zarrouk’s medium from stationary cell culture Through table 3.3, we realize that the growth rate of two strains in the standard Zarrouk’s medium had significantly faster than two strains in the Zarrouk’s medium from stationary cell culture So, to explain why this growth rate is different, we give a reason: When the cell was cultured in stationary phase, the cellular was able to the growth very bad The medium had been filtered from stationary Arthrospira platensis cell culture and this medium was used to kept filaments in the microwell Additionally, the nutrient was contented to reduce in this medium Therefore, the cell growth is normal very low Therefore, the cell in 28 this environment could dead, changed colors, slow movement, fragmentation time from mother filaments until offspring filaments were very long Table 3.3 Comparison of growth rate based on average and SD of each strain Standard Strains Average (µm/min) Stationary SD Average (µm/min) SD C005 148.116 52.83

same old manner that was described by Ciferri and Tiboni, 1983 (Fig 3.7) Figure 3.8 Life cycle of Arthrospira by Ciferri and Tiboni, 1983 Our Arthrospira platensis didn’t separate into small fragment and grown to the hormogonia, necridia A.platensis fragmented into two long filaments and further elongated (Fig 3.8) They will continually elongate, fragment and didn’t stop They will only stop when the nutrients decrease in the environment 29 Figure 3.9 Life cycles of Arthrospira platensis from our experiment (C005 str and Central Lab str) 3.8.a: Mother filaments and continually elongate 3.8.b: Mother filaments fragment into two offspring (off 1&2) 3.8.c: One offspring fragment and create three filaments 3.8.d: Four filaments 30 PART CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS 4.1 Conclusions 4.1.1 Cells/filaments were cultured in the standard Zarrouk’s medium The average length of C005 str is about 540 µm; Central Lab str is about 815 µm Therefore, The length of Central Lab str is longer than C005 str The fragmentation time of C005 str is the same Central Lab str, around 1500 minutes Two strains is different growth rate even they were from the same batch So, this phenomena reflect the inhomogeneity among the Arthrospira platensis population The average growth rate of C005 str is about 148 µm/min and Central Lab str is 194 µm/min Thus, Central Lab str grew faster than C005 str 4.1.2 Cells/ filaments in the Zarrouk’s medium from stationary cell culture The length of the two strains is shorter than filaments was kept in the standard Zarrouk’s medium Furthermore, the average length of Central Lab str is about 508 µm and C005 str is 583 µm So, the length of C005 str is longer than Central Lab str The average for fragmentation time of C005 str is 285 minutes and Central Lab str is 1435 minutes Regarding, fragmentation time of Central Lab is the five times higher than C005 str Beside that, the average growth rate of C005 is µm/min and Central Lab str is 80 µm/min The growth rate of Central Lab str is approximately twenty times faster than C005 str The growth rate of Arthrospira platensis is not constant Two strains were cultured in standard Zarrouk’s medium, it had grown faster than two strains in Zarrouk’s medium from stationary cell culture Thus, Central Lab str has always grown faster than C005 str The maximum length at fragmentation time of Central Lab str is longer than C005 str 4.2 Suggestions - Continually experiment about 10 filaments of each strain for clearly and convince conclusion 31 - Continually study, observe activation the growth rate of two strains ( C005 str and Central Lab str) in the Zarrouk’s medium with high salinity (NaCl=0.5M and NaCl=0.75M) using microwell based microfluidic devices Comparison the growth rate of the same strain or different strain with the same medium or different medium (growth length, fragmentation time, growth rate) in the three different mediums - The ability to survey the growth rate of two strains when the algal cells were cultured in the glass slide and observe activation under the confocal microscopy 32 REFERENCE Books Andersen, R A (Ed.)
