Preparation of protoplasts of A. catenella DH01 using the temperature shock method. (a), (b), and (c) are photographs of the intact cell, the protoplast and the cell wall of A. catenella DH01 under the light microscope. (d) A mixture of cell walls (white arrow) and protoplasts (black arrow). (e) Concentrated cell walls (white arrow) and protoplasts (black arrow). (The magnitude was 10  ×  20).
