Cell-flee extracts capable of acetylene reduction and cyanide reduction have been prepared from heterocystous (Anabaena cylindrica) and non-heteroeystous (Plectonema boryanum 594) blue-green algae. Extracts from Anabaena were obtained from cultures grown in bulk under aerobic conditions, while the P
Heterocysts reduce triphenyl tetrazolium chloride (TTC) faster than vegetative cells apparently because the absence of the Q-evolving photosystem II and the high electron transport activity in these cells. Although the rate of TTC reduction in vegetative cells is increased by the continuous removal
