Flow cytograms of sample 382-U1538A-3-1, 24–25 cm (last glacial) and pie charts/photomicrographs showing the diatom assemblages obtained by sorting of the following composite regions: Regions 9 and 13 (discoid-diatom-rich); Regions 10 and 14 (Fragilariopsis-rich); and Region 12 (Eucampia-rich). Sorting of composite region R12 and R15 also achieved purification of Eucampia antarctica (Additional file 2: Table S4). The crystalline materials in the micrographs are NaCl crystals in the sheath fluid
