I work in the Department of Proteomics at the Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research - UFZ.

The purpose of my work is the development of a new strategy to describe microbial communities in anaerobic mixed cultures. The description of the functional biodiversity plays an important role in clarifying functions of microorganisms within a community. The new strategy is based on the combination of Flow Cytometry and Metaproteom analysis.

The multi-parametric Flow Cytometry is used to find active subpopulations due to basic physical and molecular characteristics of the cells. Subsequently, the proteom of the sorted subpopulations will be analyzed and consequently the function of microorganisms will be assigned.
