Light-scatter analysis of microalgae. Correlation of scatter patterns from pure and mixed asynchronous cultures.

B J Price, V H Kollman and G C Salzman

ABSTRACT

A method is described for the first time for rapid and accurate discrimination among several algal types by their light-scattering properties alone. Using a multiangle light-scattering flow system, we obtained light-scatter patterns for individual cells in asynchronous cultures of Chlorella, Chlamydomonas, and Anacystis. The patterns are consistent and distinct for each species. By these signatures, each algal type can be recognized within mixtures.
