Characterisation of copper binding ligands from marine cyanobacterial cultures using voltammetry and mass spectrometry

Strong copper binding ligands have been produced by Synechococcus DC2 grown exponentially under copper stressed conditions. Using pseudo-polarography, all cultures were found to produce a strong copper binding ligand with a log K' of 24.7, assuming that copper is in the +1 oxidation state. Weak...
