Sažetak
Folic acid(FA) which belongs to B-group vitamins has recently been recognized as possible nutrient for some phytoplankton species(a diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum). The beneficial role of FA on human health is widely documented. In some countries food fortification become mandatory. FA is also used under commercial name of Dosfolate for the treatement of industrial and domestic wastewaters. This is an exploratory study on seasonal and depth variability of FA concentrations in the Northern Adriatic ( station 101, max depth 30m, under the Po river influence). Seawater samples were analyzed in the period from February 1998 to February 2003.
