Abstract
Living algal cells, usually of a pure culture of Chlorella pyrenoidosa, were examined with the Allison magneto-optic apparatus, and meta- and pyrophosphate were found to be present except where the algae had been in phosphate-deficient media for a long time. Metaphosphate was present after the ortho- and pyro-forms could no longer be detected.
