Abstract
Four commonly used techniques for preparation of 14C-labeled algal samples on membranes for liquid scintillation counting were compared and a simple technique for apparent net assimilation measurement from aqueous samples was introduced. All four techniques yielded similar radioactivities from the test cultures and are thus suitable for measurements of 14C algal samples. The possibly carcinogenic solvent dioxane was not necessary with PCS scintillation cocktail for dissolving radioactivity from algae on filters.
