The invention belongs to the technical field of
algae physiology, and particularly discloses a method for efficiently extracting microalgae
chlorophyll, which comprises the following steps: a, taking an
algae liquid sample, centrifuging, discarding supernatant, and adding 90%
ethanol solution for resuspension; b, adding
quartz sand into the resuspension, carrying out
cell homogenization treatment under the condition of 60 Hz, repeating the
cell homogenization treatment for 4 times, 45 seconds each time, and 5 seconds each time; and c, heating the sample in a constant-temperature water bath at 60 DEG C for 7 minutes, centrifuging, and collecting supernate. By optimizing the
ethanol concentration, the
cell homogenization time, the cell homogenization material and the hot bath time, the cell homogenization technology of combining an
ethanol method with
quartz sand broken
algae cells is improved, the
chlorophyll extraction efficiency is effectively improved, the stability is good, and large-scale application is easy. Compared with an
acetone method, an ethanol method and an ethanol-
steel ball method, the microalgae
chlorophyll extraction method provided by the invention has obvious advantages.
