| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Environmental microbes have tight interaction between many species in regional small space and they produce metabolite and exchange it each other. That is the source of matter cycle in the ecosystem, therefore detection of slight and small amount of metabolite from environmental microbes is important issue. However there are not still enough techniques to detect metabolite comprehensively from environmental biological small amount sample. In our research, we used symbiotic microbes living in termite gut that is one of good example of complicated environmental microbe system and we tried to establish single-cell metabolic analytical techniques. We succeeded in detecting metabolite from small amount sample and single microbe cell. It will be helpful to unravel specific materials that may be related to develop symbiotic relationship in the ecosystem.
