Collect qualitative samples using plankton net 25 (6.1). Turn off the water outlet piston switch at the bottom of the plankton net, and at the surface of the water to At a depth of 0.5 m, reciprocate in an "∞" shape at a speed of 20 cm/s to 30 cm/s, and drag slowly for about 1 to 3 minutes, until there is obvious floating in the net. When the plankton enters, lift the plankton net (6.1) out of the water surface, and the water in the net is naturally filtered out through the mesh holes, and a little water sample (5 ml~ 10 ml), move the bottom outlet into the qualitative sampling bottle (6.2), and open the bottom piston switch to collect qualitative samples. Collect layered samples When the number of plankton net 25 (6.1) is used to filter specific water layer samples, other steps are the same as the collection of surface layer samples. After qualitative sample collection is complete Clean the plankton net in time. After the samples are collected, put them in a refrigerator (6.5) for transportation in the dark. If there is a technical specification for qualitative sample collection, follow the relevant requirements of the technical specification. 7.1.2 Quantitation of samples Collect quantitative samples in accordance with the relevant provisions of GB/T 14581, HJ/T 91 and HJ 494. Use the water collector (6.3) to collect 1 L to 2 L of sample into the quantitative sampling bottle (6.4). If the water transparency is high, the number of phytoplankton When the volume is small, the sampling volume should be increased as appropriate. After the quantitative sample collection is complete, the quantitative sampling bottle (6.4) should not be full so that it can be shaken well. Note 1.Some phytoplankton (such as blue-green algae) often float on the water surface or are distributed in patches and strips, which can be sampled in this dense bloom area as a peak reference. Note 2.Quantitative sample collection should precede qualitative sample collection. Fixed time period sampling should be maintained so that results can be compared with each other. 7.2 Sample Storage 7.2.1 Qualitative samples After the qualitative sample is collected, it should be fixed by adding Lugol's iodine solution (5.4) immediately, and the dosage is 1.0% to 1.5% of the volume of the water sample. microscopic examination Samples were fixed without Lugol's iodine solution (5.4). Qualitative samples can be stored for 3 weeks at room temperature in the dark; refrigerated at 1 ℃ ~ 5 ℃ in the dark It can be stored for 12 months. In vivo samples can be stored for 36 h under refrigerated storage at 4 °C to 10 °C in the dark. 7.2.2 Quantitation of samples Immediately after the quantitative sample collection, add Lugol's iodine solution (5.4) to fix it, and the dosage is 1.0% to 1.5% of the volume of the water sample. Lugo Add the iodine solution (5.4) to the quantitative sampling bottle (6.4) in advance and bring it to the site for use. Quantitative samples can be stored for 3 weeks at room temperature in the dark; It can be stored for 12 months at 1 ℃ ~ 5 ℃ in the dark. During the storage process of the sample, the oxidation degree of Lugol's iodine solution (5.4) should be checked every week. Add an appropriate amount of Lugol's iodine solution (5.4) until the color of the sample returns to tan. Note. If the sample needs to be stored for a long time, formaldehyde solution (5.3) should be added in an amount of 4% of the volume of the water sample.8 Analysis steps8.1 Specimen Preparation 8.1.1 Preflight According to the requirements of 8.1.2 ~ 8.1.5, complete the pre-inspection and mount the slides, and judge the phytoplankton density of the sample, which is convenient for the subsequent analysis of the sample. 8.1.2 Mixing the sample Before each sampling, thoroughly mix the sample by inverting at least 30 times, and the mixing action should be light. 8.1.3 Filtration volume Estimate the density of phytoplankton according to the pre-check, adjust the filtration volume of the sample, and finally make about 40 to 105 phytoplankton cells on the filter membrane. cell. Recommended sample filtration volumes for different precheck estimated density levels are shown in Table 1. 8.1.4 Sample Filtration Quickly measure the appropriate sample volume with a graduated cylinder or pipette (6.16) and add the sample to the vacuum filtration device (6.6) equipped with the filter membrane (5.6). In the funnel, let stand for 2 min to 3 min, vacuum filtration, turn off the vacuum pump when there is a 0.5 cm liquid layer in the funnel, and let the remaining liquid pass through the funnel completely. Do not drain the filter membrane. 8.1.5 Mounting Preparation After the sample has been filtered, remove the filter with toothless tissue tweezers (6.9), keeping the phytoplankton-retaining side up, and place 2 drops of On the slide (6.7) of the microscope immersion oil (5.5), drop 2 drops of microscope immersion oil (5.5) on the filter membrane with a transparent glass drop stick, and place the microscope immersion oil (5.5). Put the glass slide (6.7) into the slide drying plate (6.10), put it in the oven (6.11), and heat it at 70 ℃±2 ℃ for 2 h. Remove the slides after 2 hours Dry the plate (6.10) and observe whether the filter membrane is transparent. If it is transparent, add 2 drops of microscope immersion oil (5.5) on the filter membrane and cover with a cover glass (6.8), the preparation of the tablet is completed. If the filter membrane is not transparent after heating for 2 hours, prolong the heating time, not more than 24 hours. When covering with a coverslip (6.8), Do not disturb the filter. 8.2 Qualitative sample analysis Observe the qualitative sample under the microscope (6.12) to identify the species of phytoplankton. The dominant species has been identified, and other species should be identified at least Set to belong. For some identification references, see References. Note. In addition to qualitative samples for species identification, quantitative samples that have been counted can also be used for observation. 8.3 Quantitative sample analysis 8.3.1 Microscope calibration Calibrate the microscope (6.12) before counting and determine the area of the counting field (Whipple field or eyepiece field). Microscope Calibration Tool Includes stage micrometer (6.13) and Whipple eyepiece reticle (6.14). See Appendix B for the calibration method of the Whipple eyepiece reticle. 8.3.2 Microscope counting The recommended visual field categories and counted visual fields of samples with different density levels are shown in Table 2.Place the mount (8.1.5) on the microscope (6.12) mount On stage, microscopic counts were performed using the Whipple field or the eyepiece field of view. For sample counting at lower density levels, it is recommended to select the eyepiece field of view count. According to the size of phytoplankton cells, choose the magnification of eyepiece 10×, objective lens 20× or eyepiece 10×, objective lens 40× magnification, and record The species and quantity of phytoplankton in each field of view. ......Tips & Frequently Asked Questions:Question 1: How long will the true-PDF of HJ 1215-2021_English be delivered?Answer: Upon your order, we will start to translate HJ 1215-2021_English as soon as possible, and keep you informed of the progress.
