PhycoLabAnalyser Early warning system for detection of cyanobacteria and unbound phycocyanin The bbe PhycoLabAnalyser* (PhycoLA) offers the simultaneous determination of chlorophyll concentrations, transmission, and - as an option - the photosynthetic activity of microalgae in a 25 ml glass cuvette. Additionally, the PhycoLA measures the amount of unbound phycocyanin (free PC) which reflects the release of blue-green algae contents like toxins as well as flavours and odorous substances. FEATURES Quick, simple chlorophyll measurement with algal class differentiation Indicator for cyanotoxins as...

PhycoSens Online determination of algae classes, chlorophyll and phycocyanin concentrations as well as photosynthetic activity The bbe PhycoSens* is deployed in measuring stations and laboratories in which online measurement of water quality is required for rivers, reservoirs, dams and lakes as well as in drinking water production. The instrument impresses due to its rapid analysis of chlorophyll and unbound phycocyanin (free PC) concentrations. The free colour pigments of the cyanobacteria are an important indicator for cyanotoxins as well as flavours and odorous substances in raw water. The...

PhycoProbe Depth-profile with quick analysis of chlorophyll and unbound phycocyanin concentrations as well as algae classes The bbe PhycoProbe* is a highly sensitive measuring instrument for the in vivo analysis of chlorophyll-a in real microalgae and blue-green algae (cyanobacteria). Individual profiles for the different algal classes are created during the measurement. The algal content is determined by evaluating the chlorophyll fluorescence in real time. FEATURES Quick, simple chlorophyll measurement with algal class differentiation Indicator for cyanotoxins as well as flavours and odorous...
