Abstract

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in phytoplankton cultures were determined using modified Grob closed-loop stripping method and GC-MS analysis. Methylated alkanes were found to be the dominant group produced by the algae Phaeodactylum tricornutum. Some methylated benzenes were also found which might explain their presence in some of the remote unpolluted marine environment zooplankton grazing and bacteria were also found to influence the production of VOCs by the phytoplankton
