INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY FOR THE STUDY OF HARMFUL ALGAE12 th <str<strong>on</strong>g>Internati<strong>on</strong>al</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>C<strong>on</strong>ference</str<strong>on</strong>g> <strong>on</strong> <strong>Harmful</strong> <strong>Algae</strong>, Copenhagen, Denmark, 4-8 September 2006assimilati<strong>on</strong> and PST producti<strong>on</strong>were investigated in cl<strong>on</strong>al batchcultures over the growth cycle.Growth rates increased withincreasing temperature andirradiance. Growth was depressedat lower temperature (20 °C) andirradiance (40 µmol phot<strong>on</strong>s m -2 s -1 ).The species showed no net growthat 10 µmol phot<strong>on</strong>s m -2 s -1 and atemperature of 15 °C, although cellsremained alive. Cellular toxin quotas(Qt) varied in the range 10 – 42 fmolPST cell -1 . Toxin producti<strong>on</strong> rate,Rtox increased with elevated light atboth 20 °C and 25 °C, withpr<strong>on</strong>ounced effect observed in theexp<strong>on</strong>ential phase (r 2 = 0.96). Rtoxalso increased significantly withincreased temperature (P < 0.05).The ecotypic variati<strong>on</strong>s in growthadaptati<strong>on</strong>s and toxin producti<strong>on</strong> ofthis Malaysian strain may reveal aunique physiological adaptati<strong>on</strong> oftropical Alexandrium species.PO.14-15Exterminating model of toxicmicroalgae by electrochemicalmethodSessi<strong>on</strong>: PO.14 - Mitigati<strong>on</strong>H OgawaUniv. Tamagawa, MACHIDA-SHI TOKYO,JapanChemical methods to exterminatetoxic microalgae have beingdeveloped; but applicati<strong>on</strong> of themethods in river head areas andfish farms is restricted.Exterminating toxic cyanobacteriais important because of increasingc<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong>s of toxic compoundsthrough the food chains. A methodthat does not use chemicals ispreferred in riverhead areas andfish farms.The electrochemical method ischaracterized by the eluti<strong>on</strong> of ametallic i<strong>on</strong> from the structures.Large amount of calcium andmagnesium dissolved in water canbe obtained easily from shells andused for the machine structure.Ir<strong>on</strong>, aluminum, sodium andpotassium are dissolved as i<strong>on</strong>s inwater, but their c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong>s arelow. Ir<strong>on</strong> and aluminium chelateshave effective cohesi<strong>on</strong> effects butthey spoil the taste of water.The performance of the modeldevice based <strong>on</strong> adsorpti<strong>on</strong>,precipitati<strong>on</strong> (effect of cohesi<strong>on</strong>)and surfacing was evaluated byusing the soluti<strong>on</strong> in which severalkinds of algae have been cultured.The toxic microalgae wereadsorbed and c<strong>on</strong>centrated by thedevice. Different methods toremove the chemicals and theelements discharged from toxicmicroalgae were tested.PO.07-11Impact of Lingulodiniumpolyedrum blooms <strong>on</strong> thenorthern coast of Baja California,MexicoSessi<strong>on</strong>: PO.07 - Ecology andoceanographyE Orellana-Cepeda 1 , C Granados-Machuca 2 , M Avalos-Borja 3 , LAMorales-Zamorano 4 , M Valdez-Marquez 5 , D Parlange-Lamshing 5 , IGradilla-Martínez 31 Universidad Autónoma de Baja California,SAN YSIDRO, United States of America2 FCM, UABC, ENSENADA, BajaCalifornia., Mexico3 CCMC, UNAM, ENSENADA, Mexico4 FCAS, UABC, ENSENADA, BajaCalifornia, Mexico5 Maricultura del Norte SRL de CV,ENSENADA, MexicoRed tides occur annually <strong>on</strong> thecoast of Baja California (BC) and aphytoplankt<strong>on</strong> m<strong>on</strong>itoring programwas therefore initiated in 2003 to253
