Standard Practice for Algal Growth Potential Testing with Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata

Importancia y uso:

5.1 The significance of measuring algal growth potential in water samples is that differentiation can be made between the nutrients of a sample determined by chemical analysis and the nutrients that are actually available for algal growth. The addition of nutrients (usually nitrogen and phosphorus singly or in combination) to the sample can give an indication of which nutrient(s) is (are) limiting for algal growth (1,10,11,12,13,14).
