Lipid Granules Staining (Nile Red and Bodypy) of Different Biofuel Producing Fresh Water Microalgae Growing under Various Stress Conditions
Year: 2011
Type: article
Abstract: Chlorella vulgaris and Diatoms were cultivated and maintained in different stress system like high light intensity (18:6, Light: Dark) and N 2 limited condition. Â After the stationary phase, the cells were stained by Nile red and Bodipy. Â The slides were examined under fluorescence in situ hybridization microscopy, it showed the Chlorella vulgaris cultivated under N 2 limited system yield high lipid bodies than light induced system and Stressed Diatoms. Â While Bodipy is a best tool for staining algal lipid bodies than Nile Red stain. Â
