This study aims to explore microbes from mangroves in Saudi Arabia for their abilities to
produce high level of lipids. Mangroves are seldom investigated for oleaginous microbes. A …

Background Microalgae have attracted major interest as a sustainable source for biodiesel
production on commercial scale. This paper describes the screening of six microalgal …

Abstract Background Single cell oils (SCOs) accumulated by oleaginous fungi have
emerged as a potential alternative feedstock for biodiesel production. Though fungi from …

According to estimates of the intergovernmental panel on climate change, the continued use
of oil based-energy is responsible for more than two thirds of the anthropogenic emissions of …

Biodiesel is a renewable and environmentally friendly energy source fuel produced through
transesterification of plant oils or animal fats with short chain alcohols. The global market for …

Abstract Twenty-five (25) strains of microalgae were isolated and screened for growth, lipid
accumulation and biodiesel production from arid environments of North East Nigeria …

Microalgae have attracted a major interest in biofuel, food and feed stock sectors as they can
accumulate lipids, proteins and carbohydrates in large amounts within short periods of time …

World attention in renewable energy sources, such as biofuels, has been increasing since
the decline in petroleum supplies. In the quest to find a viable and sustainable resource for …

In this study, the yeast strain P10 which was identified to be a member of Aureobasidium
pullulans var. melanogenum isolated from the mangrove ecosystems was found to be able …

The aim of this study was to assess the lipid content and the subsequent potential of different
microalgae present in the Mauritian marine water to produce biodiesel. The share of micro …
