Abstract
The effect of Cd at sublethal concentrations on pure cultures of S. bijugatus and N. palea was studied with special reference to their physiology during exponential growth phase. Photosynthetic productivity, respiration, pH, biomass, pigments, carbohydrate, protein, lipid as well as nutrient uptake were selected to study the comprehensive effect of the metal. The physiology of the species was significantly affected by Cd during the exponential growth phase and altered the ratio of carbohydrate, protein and lipid in the test species.
