Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, we aimed to develop a novel technique for screening of bioactive compound producers from environmental bacteria without bacterial cultivation or extraction and purification of the compounds. In order to detect bioactive compounds non-invasively, we firstly tried to obtain Raman spectral library of biomolecules. Based on this data library, we have succeeded in in situ detection of the Raman bands derived to antibiotics with the aid of resonance Raman effect and multivariate analysis technique. In addition, to achieve the high-throughput screening of bioactive compounds from environmental bacteria, we have developed the microfluidic bacterial culture and Raman spectral measurement systems and evaluated the performance of them.
