Hello, I have started culturing P. tricornutum CCAP 1055/18 on an enriched seawater medium (see Villanova et al 2021). But I am experiencing some problems related to these agglomerates (you can see in the pictures) and I don’t understand what it could be, if a bacteria contamination or something produced and expelled from microalgae cells. I have cultured this strain before and I have never seen something like this. What do you think it could be?

thanks everyone who will help
