Abstract
Chlorophylls and carotenoids are core components of photosynthetic energy transduction in algal cells, whereas starch, lipids, and polyphosphates represent energy reserves. All these biomolecules exhibit characteristic molecular vibrations that were sensed and localized in individual cells of Desmodesmus quadricauda and Chlorella vulgaris by confocal Raman microscopy. In the same cells, fluorescence of chlorophylls and of lipid bodies stained...
