Coloration patterns of marine sponges assessed by vibrational spectroscopy

Abstract: Sponges (phylum Porifera) are colorful filter feeding animals that harbor a large number of microorganisms in their tissue-like structures in a symbiotic relationship. The colors exhibited by sponges implied in physiological and ecological process can be biosynthetically derived or acquired from the symbiont. In this work, the coloration pattern of nine species of sponges collected in the littoral of Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil, was identified by vibrational spectroscopy. An unprecedented study combining Rama… Show more

“…Based on a comparison of the results with model substances, these broad and sharp bands were assigned to polysulfides and glycogen, respectively. Maia et al (Coloration patterns of marine sponges assessed by vibrational spectroscopy, NEEM-UFJF, Brazil) [48] report a study of sponges (Phylum Porifera), colorful animals that harbor a large number of microorganisms in their tissue-like structures in a symbiotic relationship. The colors exhibited by sponges implied in physiological and ecological process can be biosynthetically derived or acquired from the symbiont.…”
