| Abstract | The endeavors undertaken and documented in this investigation involve a hitherto neglected but specific aspect of algal metabolism, namely, the effect of waste water organic compounds on the growth of algae. To attain this end, the organic component of the effluent from a modern well-operated conventional activated sludge system was separated into fractions according to molecular size by gel permeation chromatography. The fractions were than examined as to their possible effect on algal growth by standard culture comparison techniques. The results of the chromatography and the biological investigations are presented. |
