  1. Expanded Utility of Signature Lipid Biomarker Analysis for Microbial Community Composition and Nutritional/Physiological Status with HPLC/ESI/MS/MS Analysis of Intact Lipid Components • David C. White, Cory Lytle, Sarah J. Macnaughton, John R. Stephen, Aaron Peacock, Carol A. Smith, Ying Dong Gan,Yun-Juan Chang, Yevette M. Piceno • Center for Environmental Biotechnology, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, TN, Environmental Sciences Division, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, TN, Microbial Insights, Inc., Rockford, TN, Microbial Insights, Inc. -CEB

  2. In-situ Microbial Community Assessment In the Environment < 1.0 to 0.1% of the in-situ microbial community is detected using Isolation and Classical Plate Count Many non-culturable organisms can be infectious (VNCB), isolation can take days, lose insight into community interactions & physiology Two Complimentary Biomarker Methods: DNA: Recover from surface, Amplify with PCR using rDNA primers , Separate with denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE), sequence for identification and phylogenetic relationship. Great specificity Lipids: Extract, concentrate, structural analysis Quantitative, Insight into: viable biomass, community composition, Nutritional-physiological status, evidence for metabolic activity

  3. Signature Lipid Biomarker Analysis Cathedral from a Brick Predict impact of Cr contamination (from 50-200,000 ppm) on soil microbial community by artificial neural network (ANN) analysis PLFA (phospholipid fatty acid) excellent ~x 102-103 ppm Cr with (PLFA). DNA is “non compressible” ~ perfect code not so influenced By microniche conditions as cell membranes PLFA is compressible as contains physiological status input Contains “holistic’ information & responds to perturbations Predict it is a Cathedral or a Prison : DNA a perfect brick PLFA a non-linear mixture of bricks and a window

  4. Signature Lipid Biomarker Analysis • Phospholipid Fatty Acid [PLFA] Biomarker Analysis = Single most quantitative, comprehensive insight into in-situ microbial community • Why not Universally utilized? • Requires 8 hr extraction with ultrapure solvents [emulsions]. • Ultra clean glassware [incinerated 450oC]. • Fractionation of Polar Lipids • Derivatization [transesterification] • 5. GC/MS analysis ~ picomole detection ~ 104 cells LOD • 6. Arcane Interpretation [Scattered Literature] • 7. 3-4 Days and ~ $250

  5. Signature Lipid Biomarker Analysis Expand the Lipid Biomarker Analysis 1. Increase speed and recovery of extraction “Flash” 2. Include new lipids responsive to physiological status HPLC (not need derivatization & increase molecular size) Respiratory quinone ~ redox & terminal electron acceptor Diglyceride ~ cell lysis Archea ~ methanogens Lipid ornithine ~ bioavailable phosphate Lysyl-phosphatidyl glycerol ~ low pH Poly beta-hydroxy alkanoate ~ unbalanced growth 3.
