BACKGROUND In recent years, mixotrophic culture of algal cells has been gaining
increasing interest, largely because it offers an efficient means of commercial production of …

Microalgal biofuels have attracted much attention in recent years. Nevertheless, the
relatively low growth rate and low cell density limits its industrial application. Mixotrophic …

Microalgae are a source of highly valuable bioactive metabolites and a high-potential
feedstock for environmentally friendly and sustainable biofuel production. Recent research …

This study compared the growth and lipid accumulation properties of two oleaginous
microalgae, namely, Scenedesmus sp. LX1 and Chlorella sp. HQ, under different nutrient …

This study aimed to examine the impact of crude glycerol as the main carbon source on the
growth, cell morphology, and production of high-value-added metabolites of two microalgal …

We evaluate the effects of nutrient limitation on cellular composition of polar lipid
classes/species in Chlorella sp. using modern polar lipidomic profiling methods (liquid …

Background The fast growing photosynthetic microalgae have been widely used in
aquaculture, food, health, and biofuels. Recent findings in the diatom has proposed a pivotal …

Supplying microalgae with extra CO 2 is a promising means for improving lipid production.
The molecular mechanisms involved in lipid accumulation under conditions of elevated CO …

Chlorella can produce an unusually wide range of metabolites under various nutrient
availability, carbon source, and light availability. Glucose, an essential molecule for the …

Research seeks to alter the optical characteristics of microalgae in order to improve solar-to-
