Sampleprep Summary: | At the end of the experiment, each block was split into three segments from top to bottom using a sterile chisel. The top and middle sections were quenched in liquid nitrogen, lyophilised and stored at -20°C. From the bottom third of each block, four wood chips (~0.5 mm2) were extracted, one from each quadrant, and placed onto 2% (w/v) MEA. Cultures were incubated at 20°C for 7 – 10 days and mycelial morphology confirmed that no woodblocks had become contaminated during the experiment. One third of the frozen woodblock sections from each treatment group were each weighed and manually chipped, added to ≤ 10 ml acetonitrile : methanol : H2O (2:2:1) and shaken at 180 rpm at room temperature for 1 h. Extracts were filtered through glass wool and Whatman filter paper (no. 1) and centrifuged at 3,500 g for 30 min. The supernatant was dried in vacuo (Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany) overnight. Dried samples were derivitized by addition of 30 μl methoxylamine hydrochloride (15 mg ml-1 in pyridine; Sigma, UK) followed by incubation at 60°C for 90 min. Subsequently 50 μl MSTFA+ 1% (v/v) TMCS (Thermo Scientific) was added to the sample and incubated at 40°C for 60 min. Derivatized samples were transferred to autosampler vials and 10 μl tetracosane (5 mg ml-1 in heptane; Sigma-Aldrich) added as an internal standard. |
