CHLOROPHYLL AlgaeLabAnalyser
Determination of chlorophyll concentrations, algal
classes and photosynthetic activity for science and
routine analysis
The bbe AlgaeLabAnalyser offers the simultaneous determination of
chlorophyll concentrations, transmission, and – as an option – the photosynthetic
activity of microalgae in a 25 ml glass cuvette. The chlorophyll
content is excited by coloured LEDs and allocated to the different
algal classes. The AlgaeLabAnalyser enables direct measurement without
sample preparation by filtration or solvent. The fluorescence signals
f0, f, fm are used to calculate the photosynthetic activity using the Genty
parameter method. A yellow substances (CDOM) correction is also used to
correctly calculate the total chlorophyll content. The device is virtually maintenance-
free and very simple to operate thus saving both time and money.
