Figure 1

Effect of tungstate on growth of D. tertiolecta. (a) Monitoring of OD during 14 days. (b) Biomass accumulated at 15th days of culture (g/L). All cultures were cultivated in Guillard F/2 medium. Sodium tungstate was added to the cultures at the beginning of culture “one-stage treatment,” or at 7h day “Two-stage treatment.”
