Label-free, simultaneous quantification of starch, protein and triacylglycerol in single microalgal cells

Abstract Background Current approaches for quantification of major energy-storage forms in microalgae, including starch, protein and lipids, generally require cell cultivation to collect biomass followed by tedious and time-consuming analytical procedures. Thus, label-free, non-destructive and simul...
