Photosynthetic attributes of P. tricornutum at a range of NU 2058 concentrations

NU 2058, μM Fv/Fm Chl a, pg/cell a*, m2/mg Chl a 1/ϕFA, quanta/C
0 0.58 0.55 ± 0.02 0.006 ± 0.001 217 ± 13
5 0.60 0.60 ± 0.01 0.006 ± 0.002 150 ± 14
7 0.57 0.54 ± 0.03 0.006 ± 0.001 147 ± 14

Data are mean ± 1 SD (n = 3). Fv/Fm, maximum quantum efficiency of photochemistry; a*, optical absorption cross section of PSII normalized to Chl a; 1/ϕFA, the photon energetic requirement for incorporation of carbon into fatty acid.
