Division: | Physical & Mathematical Sciences / Environmental Innovation | Category: | Intermediate | Region: | Edmonton | City: | Pickardville, AB | School: | Richard F Staples Secondary School | Abstract: | LED light has been utilized as a superior energy source for both bacteria and animal cells. Various varieties of these lights were investigated and the LED-growth and LED-oxygen emission relationship was examined in a controlled lab setting using the algae strain chlorella kessleri. After testing, it was determined that 625nm was most efficient as it boosted oxygen produced per algae under this light. |
