Algal Quantification by Photoelectric Current Differential

圣劳伦斯学院和安大略省圭尔夫的MANTECH公司已经建立了一项研究合作伙伴关系，研究一种评估水体中藻类存在和定量快速检测的新方法。****在整个北美，来自人为来源（包括农业肥料、工业废物和发展）的磷和氮形式的营养物污染对水生生态系统施加了巨大压力。这些压力源的直接和间接贡献是造成有害藻华（HAB）增加的原因，预计未来有害藻华将继续更加频繁和持续。** **MANTECH在圣劳伦斯学院康沃尔校区研究团队的协助下，将研究一种新的工艺，以帮助公司扩大和改进其peCOD检测系统。****有关该项目的更多信息，请联系：****Ian Dick**行业联络处，应用研究**(613)544-5400 x 1459**

St. Lawrence College and MANTECH Inc. of Guelph, Ontario, have developed a research partnership to investigate a novel process for assessing algal presence and quantification for rapid detection in water bodies. ****Throughout North America, nutrient pollution in the form of phosphorus and nitrogen from anthropogenic sources including agricultural fertilisers, industrial waste and development exerts significant pressures on aquatic ecosystems. The direct and indirect contributions of these stressors are responsible for an increase in harmful algal blooms (HAB), which are expected to continue to be more frequent and sustained in the future.** **MANTECH with the assistance of the research team at the Cornwall campus of St. Lawrence College will be investigating a new process to help the company expand and improve upon its line of peCOD detection systems.****For additional information about this project, please contact:****Ian Dick**Industry Liaison, Applied Research**(613) 544-5400 x 1459**
