Dynamic NanoSIMS ion imaging of unicellular freshwater algae exposed to copper

Abstract: This work demonstrates the capabilities of nanoscale secondary-ion mass spectrometry, using the Cameca NanoSIMS50 ion microprobe, to detect and image the copper-ion distribution in microalgal cells exposed to nanomolar and micromolar copper concentrations. In parallel to 63 Cu − secondary-ion maps, images of 12 C −

“…With increasing time increments, the ratio {Cu} ads /{Cu} int was significantly reduced and internalized Cu dominated the uptake. The above observations were in agreement with secondary 63 Cu -ion distribution in the individual C. kesslerii cells washed with EDTA (27), demonstrating that most of the Cu is in the Pand protein-containing compartments of the cell and that only a negligible amount of metal is at the cell periphery. This also independently confirms the efficiency of the EDTA extraction procedure (27).…”

“…MSI has been employed to analyze many classes of samples, examples include everything from unicellular algae [36], cell cultures [37], plant material [23,38], surgically dissected organs and tissue biopsies [39], to whole animals [40][41][42]. As already alluded to, for all samples it is vital that rapid and consistent collection protocols are used to prevent rapid delocalization or degradation of target compounds, such as have been reported in neuropeptidomic abundance studies in post-mortem brain [35,43].…”

“…Peptide analysis of neuronal cell cultures have been performed, employing the stretch method described earlier [37]. SIMS has been used to image copper ion distributions in microalgal cells following fixation [36], while SIMS and MALDI analyses have been combined to image in situ the localization and quantification of surfactins in a Bacillus subtilis swarming community [139]. Finally, an interesting alternative to direct sample analysis has been used by researchers using DESI to image the distribution of leaf chlorophyll degradation products using imprinting techniques [38] reminiscent of early MALDI MSI blotting experiments [1] and sample contact transfer to silicon surfaces for DIOS analysis [75].…”

“…NanoSIMS can also measure the cellular distribution of other nutrients such as copper or iron (31,162) and can reveal the ability of microbes to take up specific, labeled organic molecules (e.g., algal exudates) (124). Applying this technique to known diatombacterium interactions will provide valuable information on the flux of nutrients from one organism to another and the net production by these organisms in the ecosystem.…”
