摘要

Light microscopy, FlowCam, and sandwich hybridization assay (SHA) are three approaches that facilitate the monitoring of harmful algal bloom (HAB) forming phytoplankton. Yet, cross-comparisons among these tech-niques have not been conducted. This study addressed that gap using the saxitoxin-producing 'red tide' dino-flagellate Alexandrium catenella, a species responsible for blooms and paralytic shellfish poisoning worldwide. To achieve this goal, the dynamic ranges of each technique were compared using A. catenella cultures spanning low (pre-bloom), moderate (bloom), and high (dense bloom) levels. To assess field detection, water samples con-taining very low ( 0.05). However, relative to microscopy at times SHA produced non-detect signals 0.05 for all treat-ments). Findings are relevant to HAB researchers, managers, and public health officials because they help reconcile disparate cell abundance datasets that inform numerical models and enhance HAB monitoring and prediction. Results are also likely broadly applicable to several HAB species.
