The bacterial and yeast strains used in this study are shown in Table 1. LAB strains were cultivated in De Man-Rogosa-Sharpe (MRS) broth (Carl Roth, Germany). The medium was supplemented with 10% filter-sterilized white table wine for cultivation of two strains of Lb. kefiranofaciens 5016 and 10550. Acetobacter (A.) orientalis and A. fabarum were cultivated in AAB broth [5 g L–1 yeast extract (Merck, Germany), 5 g L–1 bacto peptone (Merck, Germany), 5 g L–1 glucose (Merck, Germany), 1 g L–1 MgSO4 × 7 H2O (Sigma, Germany)] and yeasts were cultivated in YPG broth [10 g L–1 yeast extract, 20 g L–1 peptone (Merck, Germany), 20 g L–1 glucose]. All strains were incubated at 30°C under static aerobic conditions, except Lb. kefiranofaciens ssp., which were cultivated under severe oxygen-limited conditions (Anaerocult A®; Merck, Germany). The genomic DNA (gDNA) of bacteria and yeast species was extracted from exponentially growing cultures [24 h for all strains except Lb. kefiranofaciens ssp. and Kazachtania (Kz.) turicensis, which were cultivated between 4 and 5 days] by using a NucleoSpin® Microbial DNA kit (MACHEREY-NAGEL, Germany). Quality and concentration of extracted gDNA was measured with a NanoDrop ND-1000 spectrophotometer (Peqlab Biotechnologie, Germany).

Test microorganisms including bacteria Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Enterococcus faecalis, fungus Aspergillus niger and yeast Candida utilis were cultivated in standard LB growth medium (10 g L−1 tryptone (Sigma Aldrich; St. Louis, MO, USA), 5 g L−1 yeast extract (Sigma Aldrich; St. Louis, MO, USA), 5 g L−1 sodium chloride (Nin Saltwork; Nin, Croatia), 20 g L−1 agar (Sigma Aldrich; St. Louis, MO, USA)). One hundred microliters of overnight culture were spread on solid LB agar in Petri dishes. Fifty microliters of microalgae extract were applied on a sterile disk and placed on the surface of a solid LB medium with a test microorganism. Neomycin and nystatin at 50 mg mL−1 were used as a positive control, while 100% methanol was used as a negative control. Plates with bacterial and fungal strains were incubated at 30 °C for 24 and 48 h, respectively. Afterwards, inhibition zones around the disk were measured. For all test microorganisms, assays were done in duplicate.

All bacterial strains used in this study are listed in Table 1. The routine growth of all species was carried out using Brain Heart Infusion (Oxoid) supplemented with 5 g L-1 yeast extract (Sigma) and 0.05% L-Cysteine (Sigma) (BHIS). All strains were grown in anaerobic conditions in a Modular Atmosphere Control System 500 (Don Whitney Scientific) at 37°C. All media underwent a minimum of 4 hour pre-equilibration in anaerobic conditions prior to inoculation.

Sodium citrate, urea, and thiourea were purchased from Chemical Reagent Co. Ltd. (Tianjin, China). Xylose and glucose were purchased from Aladdin Ltd. (Shanghai, China). Nutrient broth (NB) medium (1 g L−1 yeast extract, 3 g L−1 beef extract, 5 g L−1 poly peptone, 10 g L−1 sucrose) was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. All other chemicals were of analytical grade and used as received. Double distilled water was used in all experiments.

Air Sampling of Microbial Diversity

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Air samples were collected by impaction with a single-stage air sampler Microflow α (AQUARIA srl, Italy), holding 380 jets with a diameter of 1 mm. The sampler was placed in a central position of the cave at 1 m height. The impaction flow rate was set at 120 L min−1, and the airstream was directed on 90-mm-diameter agar Petri dishes containing different growth media, mainly Lysogeny Broth Agar (LBA) (10 g L−1 NaCl (Sigma-Aldrich, USA), 5 g L−1 yeast extract (Merck, Germany), 15 g L−1 agar (Difco, Michigan) and Plate Count Agar (PCA) (Difco, Michigan), or on cellulose nitrate filters with a pore size of 0.45 µm (Sartorius, Germany). Different sampling volumes, between 250 and 1000 L, were collected in duplicate. Filters were stored at −20 °C in sterile tubes until genomic DNA extraction.

Direct activity of the lipopeptides was assessed using the strain T01193 in clear and sterile flat-bottomed polystyrene 96-well plates (Iwaki, Asahi techno glass, Japan), according to Siah et al. (2010c) (link). Lipopeptides and mixtures were added to the medium at 50 °C following autoclaving. Plate wells were each filled with 150 μL of liquid glucose peptone medium (14.3 g L -1 dextrose (VWR), 7.1 g L -1 bacto peptone (Difco laboratories), and 1.4 g L -1 yeast extract (Merck)) supplemented with lipopeptides at 100, 33.3, 11.1, 3.7, 1.2, 0.4, 0.14, 0.05, 0.015, and 0.005 mg L -1 (final concentrations in 200 μL of medium). Aliquots of 50 μL containing 2.10 5 spores mL -1 of the Z. tritici strain T01193 were added to each plate well, according to Siah et al. (2010c) (link). Eight wells were used as replicates for each condition. In each microplate, noninoculated medium without lipopeptide, as well as inoculated medium without lipopeptide, were used as experimental controls. Two synthetic fungicides, bixafen (pyrazolecarboxamide) and epoxiconazole (triazole) (Sigma-Aldrich, France), were included in the assay as fungicide references. Plates were incubated for 6 days at 20 °C in the dark while being shaken at 140 rpm, after which fungal growth was measured using a plate reader (MRX, Dynex technologies) at 405 nm.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
