| Abstract: | In order to better understand the functionality and composition of jellyfish mucus for biofilter application in microplastic entrapment within WP5, we performed various chemical and biochemical analysis. Altogether, we analyzed nine jellyfish mucus samples from six species (Aurelia aurita sp, Aequorea forskalea, Rhizostoma pulmo, Cotylorhiza tuberculata, Periphylla peryphilla and Rhopilema nomadica). Jellyfish were harvested in five different areas: Norwegian Sea, Northern Adriatic Sea, Ionian Sea, Eastern Mediterranean Sea and at the Jerusalem Aquarium. Basic chemical analysis such as protein, carbohydrate, organic content and amino acid analysis were done on unprocessed freeze dried jellyfish mucus (U-mucus). A more in-depth analysis was done on ethanol extracted (P-mucus) mucus (on all mentioned mucuses except from A. forskalea) by applying amino acid and monosaccharide analysis as well as structural analysis with FTIR spectroscopy, 13C NMR spectroscopy and LC-MS/MS for protein analysis. |
