Abstract：
Electrophysiological techniques, by measuring bioelectrical signals and ion channel activities in tissues and cells, are now widely utilized to study ion channel-related physiological functions and their underlying mechanisms. Electrophysiological techniques have been extensively employed in the investigation of animals, plants, and microorganisms; however, their application in marine algae lags behind that in other organisms. In this paper, we present an overview of current electrophysiological techniques applicable to algae while reviewing the historical usage of such techniques in this field. Furthermore, we explore the potential specific applications of electrophysiological technology in harmful algal bloom (HAB) research. The application prospects in the studies of stress tolerance, competitive advantage, nutrient absorption, toxin synthesis and secretion by HAB microalgae are discussed and anticipated herein with the aim of providing novel perspectives on HAB investigations.
摘要：
电生理技术,通过测量组织和细胞中的生物电信号和离子通道活性，现已广泛用于研究离子通道相关的生理功能及其潜在机制。电生理技术已广泛用于动物的研究，植物,和微生物；然而，它们在海洋藻类中的应用落后于其他生物。在本文中,我们概述了当前适用于藻类的电生理技术，同时回顾了此类技术在该领域的历史用法。此外，我们探索了电生理技术在有害藻类水华（HAB）研究中的潜在特定应用。在应力耐受性研究中的应用前景,竞争优势,营养吸收，本文讨论并预期了HAB微藻的毒素合成和分泌，旨在为HAB研究提供新的观点。
