Sodium fluoride showed pH-dependent physiological responses in the two test microalgae Anabaena khannae and Chlorococcum humicola. A. khannae showed severe membrane damage with fluoride at low pH with leakage of pigments and electrolytes. Annihilation of photosynthesis along with inhibition in 14C uptake was observed at pH 6 with 50 mg/L fluoride. While respiration was less affected in the cyanobacterium, C. humicola showed 30 % inhibition in respiratory activity. Resistance of C. humicola to fluoride toxicity has been attributed to the hindrance provided by the thick cell envelope, intracellular compartmentation and increase in extracellular pH as a consequence of its metabolism.
