The new findings suggest that marine microbes use photosynthesis.Scientists may be able to determine whether or not ocean bacteria are involved in the global carbon cycle by determining whether or not marine microbes use, which is the process of using sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into energy.
Using a Raman spectroscopy technique, scientists from the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology of the Chlorophyll-based photosynthesis is a well-known light-harvesting system for CO2 fixation. Photosynthesis based on a type of protein known as proteorhodopsin, or PR, has been reported to fix CO2 in the presence of light. Subsequently, certain types of CO2 fixation in marine bacteria have been reported.
The researchers first identified CO2-fixing cells from seawater taken from the euphotic zone — or uppermost zone of the ocean, which is exposed to sunlight — of China’s Yellow Sea by tracking their intake of a compound C-bicarbonate. The researchers did this by using single-cell Raman spectra , a technique used to study molecules.
