VERTICAL DISTRIBUTION OF PHOTOSYNTHETIC PIGMENTS CHARACTERIZED BY HPLC UNDER THE ICE OF SAROMA KO LAGOON (16th Symposium on Polar Biology)
Composition of photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll a and its derivatives) under the ice of Saroma Ko lagoon was quantified by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). In ice algae, the relative percentage of chlorophyll a, early degradation products of chlorophyll a (chlorophyll a'-l, 2,...
