Abstract:

The marine unicellular alga Emiliania huxleyi is one of many species of the Coccolithophorida family, best known for their sophisticated biomineralization mechanisms. They produce unique particle structures, known as coccoliths, that are composed of calcium carbonate and are formed intracellularly. The main objective of this study was to produce those unique structures in freshly cultivated medium and recover them without damaging their structure. Clean recovered coccolith samples were afterwards characterized in an effort to better identify their particulate material properties.
