| Method |
"Gyrodinium dorsum was cultivated as described elsewhere (Klisch and Häder 2000). The cell density was about 16,700 mL^–1(±15 %), determined by counting all cells in defined volumes of 2.5µL (20 repetitions). The average cell volume was about 13,000µm^3, determined by manual measurement of the length and width of cells (n=13). For calculation of the cell volume, the cell shape was supposed to be a prolate spheroid (circular cross-section and elliptical apical section: volume=p/6*diameter^2*length (Hillebrand et al. 1999))." |

"The mean cell volume was 12.95±4.25pl/cell." |
