During April 18th and May 13th, Biochemist Luis Norambuena, semi-senior researcher at (CREAN) Harmful Algae Studies Center belonging to Fisheries Development Institute Aquaculture Research Division carried out an internship in Germany at Alfred Wegener renowned Institut (AWI) acting as Dr. Bernd Krock guest.<\/p>\n
Luis Norambuena referred to his internship \u201cMy internship\u2019s main objective was to strengthen knowledge in toxins detection mainly phycotoxins new variants. During my stay we carried out extractions of culture strains and phytoplankton samples, with their extraction protocols Later we measured these extracts with SRM method (Selected Reaction Monitoring) to monitor main classes of phycotoxins in them. We carry out specific tests for each class of toxins. Finally, we performed CID (Collision Induced Dissociation) experiments on found masses and analyzed obtained spectra\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe internship\u2019s main achievements were knowing and learning this prestigious center work methodology which will be adapted to our laboratory, which will allow us to make a qualitative change in CREAN\u2019s capacities to detect phycotoxins variants without commercial standard available. This is very important, as commercially available standard toxins are a small fraction of all existing toxins.<\/p>\n
Another internship\u2019s achievement was the strengthening of cooperative ties with Dr. Krock and his team. Dr. Krock is a world leader in marine toxins detection and discovery \u201d concluded the researcher.<\/p>\n
