Phytoplankton community constitutes the basis of aquatic food chain and rapidly change in response to ecological factors. Tracking health and diversity of phytoplankton is crucial in monitoring nutrient availability and environmental impacts in aquaculture industry. Herein we use NIR Raman spectroscopy as highly specific, label free method for monitoring phytoplankton. The differences in the composition of complex mixtures of bioactive molecules were analyzed using multivariate statistical data analysis techniques (PCA, PARAFAC and PLS-DA). Our results demonstrate high cross-validation and prediction accuracy for different growth phases, taxonomic groups and cell viability in three different species of phytoplankton.
