Title: Determination of adenosine triphosphate on marine particulates: synthesis of methods for use on OTEC samples

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/5126192· OSTI ID:5126192

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an indicator of living biomass in marine particulates. This report details the method used by Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory to analyze particulate ATP in samples taken from oligotrophic, tropical ocean waters. It represents a synthesis of previously published methods.
