Abstract

In the project reported, we are developing an instrument for measuring algal density based on the detection of chlorophyll fluorescence. Following the adjustment of several parameters defined during preliminary analyses, measurements were made on different concentrations of model green and blue algal cultures. Fluorescent signal intensities measured by the prototypes of the fluorometer module were compared to values determined by other, widely used methods for estimation of algal density (i.e. Bürker chamber cell counting, optical density measurement and chlorophyll-a measurement with ethanol extraction method). Fluorometer results correlated well with the other methods, resulting high correlation coefficients (R2>0.9%). Limits of detection and limits of quantification showed a decreasing trend during the development phases resulting in a highly sensitive instrument.
