Description

Algal pigment concentrations as measured by HPLC from RVIB Nathaniel B. Palmer cruise in the Ross Sea, Southern Ocean from 2017-2018.

Methods & Sampling

Algal HPLC samples were collected by gentile filtration under low vacuum through GF/F filters and frozen at -80C for on-shore analysis. Samples were extracted in acetone and analyzed using an Agilent 1100 HPLC system equipped with autosampler, photodiode array and fluorescence detectors. The gradient elution program utilized was a slight modification of the Zapata et al. method (2000). Complete details of the HPLC method are described elsewhere (DiTullio and Geesey 2002).

Data Processing Description

Pigment concentrations were determined using standard peak integration procedures with Agilent’s ChemStation (version B.03.02), and entered into Microsoft Excel Spreadsheets for submission to BCO-DMO. Parameters reported were: chlorophyll c3, chlorophyllide, magnesium-2,4-divinyl phaeoporphyrin a5 monomethyl ester, chlorophyll c2, chlorophyll c1, peridinin, pheophorbide a, 19-prime butanoyloxyfucoxanthin, fucoxanthin, neoxanthin, prasinoxanthin, violaxanthin, 19-prime hexanoyloxyfucoxanthin, diadinoxanthin, cis-fucoxanthin, alloxanthin, diatoxanthin, monadoxanthin, zeaxanthin, lutein, crocoxanthin, chlorophyll b, divinyl chlorophyll a, chlorophyll a, pheophytin a, carotene-alpha and carotene-beta.

BCO-DMO processing notes:

Adjusted column names
Adjusted date format to yyyy-mm-dd for increased interoperability
Version 2: An updated calibration curve was used to recalculate the chlorophyll a concentrations

Instrument Type

Generic Name: High-Performance Liquid Chromatograph

Acronym: HPLC

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/LAB11/

Generic Description:

A High-performance liquid chromatograph (HPLC) is a type of liquid chromatography used to separate compounds that are dissolved in solution. HPLC instruments consist of a reservoir of the mobile phase, a pump, an injector, a separation column, and a detector. Compounds are separated by high pressure pumping of the sample mixture onto a column packed with microspheres coated with the stationary phase. The different components in the mixture pass through the column at different rates due to differences in their partitioning behavior between the mobile liquid phase and the stationary phase.
