Description
Summary:For more than the past three decades, flow cytometry has been successfully applied in various, including phytoplankton, studies that require rapid qualitative assessment of the physiological condition, chemical composition, and number of microalgal cells. The potential of this method for solving applied and fundamental problems in microalgae research, the parameters of main fluorescent dyes used for this method, the features of microalgae as study objects, as well as the challenges associated with the use of the method, are discussed in the present review.
