Title:
MICROALGAE MONITORING DEVICE AND MICROALGAE MONITORING METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/098815
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A microalgae monitoring device comprising: a flow cell 40 into which a fluid including microalgae flows; an excitation light source 10 that irradiates excitation light on the flow cell 40; a first fluorescence detector 102A that detects autofluorescence occurring in each lipid in the microalgae having had the excitation light irradiated thereupon; a scattered light detector 105 that detects scattered light occurring in each microalgae; and a recording unit 301 that chronologically records the intensity of the detected lipid autofluorescence and scattered light. The recording unit 301 is included, for example, in a central calculation processing device (CPU) 300. Lipids included in microalgae are also called oil bodies. The microalgae monitoring device may also comprise a display device 401 that displays temporal change in the intensity of autofluorescence occurring in the microalgae lipids.
