Abstract

The decomposition processes of Microcystis aeruginosa under the light and dark conditions were investigated in relation to the change of microcystins, physicochemical and biological factors. Cyanobacterial cells from upper stream of Lake Dae-chong were collected and incubated in the matrix of raw water under the light and dark conditions without additional nutrients. The decomposition of Microcystis cells started from beginning of the experiment and most of the cells were decomposed on 12th day. Under the light condition the concentration of toxins in filtrate fractionwas increased with the increase of viscosity as the decomposition of algal cells proceed whereas no significant change was observed under the dark condition. Microcystin- RR was most labile toxin than the other two microcystins because it was identified mainly in lyophilized cells but detected at trace level in the filtratefraction.

본 연구에서는 남조류의 독성물질 배출 및 분해양상을 밝히고자 대청댐 지류인 옥천천의 스컴을 채취, 실험대상으로 하였다. Light와 dark 상태로 분리${\cdot}$배양한 배지에는 조사를 하는 동안 다른 영양염류는 첨가하지 않았다. 그 결과 세포내에서 microcystins의 총량은 세포수가 감소함에 따라 감소하였으며 Microcystis aeruginosa의 현존량과 비교하였을 때 light와 dark 상태의 경우 $r^{2}$값이 각각 0.96과 0.97로 높은 상관관계를 보였고 dark 상태에서 보다 더 빠른 감소추세를 보였다. 또한 세포에서 수체로 용존되는 microcystins의 량은 세포내에 존재하는 양의 극히 일부임을 확인 할 수 있었고 세포내에 분포하는 microcystins의 농도는 종류에 따라 차이를 보여 microcystin-RR>-LR>-YR의 순으로 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 옥정호과 제천천을 대상으로 한 수심별 조사에서도 동일한 양상을 보였다. 수체에서 검출된 microcystins의 양은 점성물질의 양과 함께 light와 dark 상태에 따라 뚜렷한 차이를 보였으며 light의 경우 $r^{2}$값이 -0.75의 역의 상관관계를 보였다. 남조류 세포 및 microcystins에 대한 light와 dark 상태에서의 서로 다른 농도 결과는 배양 상태에 따른 미생물의 분해양상의 차이와 미생물에 대한 점성물질의 영향으로 추정된다.
