Quantity and Quality of Light on Growth and Pigment Content of Dunaliella sp. and Anabaena sp. Cultures and the Use of Their Absorption Spectra as a Proxy Method for Assessment
George N. Hotos
Abstract:(1) Background: As microalgae cultures are affected by the quantity and quality of light, I explored this for two species. Additionally, I introduced a novel easy and economical way for the growers to easily and economically ascertain continuously with satisfactory accuracy the quantitative and qualitative status of their culture using absorption spectra. (2) Methods: The locally isolated chlorophyte Dunaliella sp. and the cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. were cultured in small volumes with two intensities of white… Show more
