PhD pro­ject: Po­ly­sac­cha­ri­des in­vol­ved in par­ti­cles for­ma­ti­on

Al­gal po­ly­sac­cha­ri­des play a pi­vo­tal role in the ma­ri­ne car­bon cy­cle be­cau­se some ty­pes ag­gre­ga­te into par­ti­cles that can sink and se­ques­ter car­bon in the oce­an. The ty­pes of po­ly­sac­cha­ri­des that ag­gre­ga­te into par­ti­cles re­main un­k­nown due to the ana­ly­ti­cal chal­len­ge to iden­ti­fy them in com­plex ma­tri­ces such as ma­ri­ne or­ga­nic mat­ter.

In this PhD pro­ject, our aim is to in­vest­ig­ate the mi­cro­al­gae po­ly­sac­cha­ri­des in­vol­ved in par­ti­cles for­ma­ti­on, pu­ri­fy the­se po­ly­sac­cha­ri­des and elu­ci­da­te their bio­lo­gi­cal role.
