Phytoplankton have great potential for biodiesel production and offer promises and
opportunities in the long term. Phytoplankton species reach higher growth rates, and thus …

The possibility of obtaining commercially valuable products from microalgae stimulates
scientific research in this direction. The ability of microalgae to accumulate lipids is very …

It has long been recognized that environmental conditions play a major role in determining
the quantity and quality of lipids produced by microalgae. These changes in lipid …

Microalgae have gained increased attention as a viable, eco-friendly and alternative source
of green bioenergy. To compete in the fuel market, saline microalgae cultivation for biofuel …

In studies of the outstanding salt tolerance of the unicellular green alga Dunaliella salina, we
isolated a cDNA for a salt-inducible mRNA encoding a protein homologous to plant β …

The major fatty acids in a Dunaliella sp. isolated from an Antarctic hypersaline lake were 18:
3ω3, 16: 0 and 16: 4ω3, which together accounted for 72–75% of the total fatty acids in the …

The biofuels are receiving considerable attention as a substitute for petro diesel. For
microalgae, the cell density or biomass and lipid contents are key components for biodiesel …

Abstract The effect of 0.3 and 0.7 M NaCl on biomass yield, total nitrogen content,
intracellular lipid content, and fatty acid profile of the lipids of the alga Botryococcus braunii …

Open ponds are the preferred cultivation system for large-scale microalgal biomass
production. To be more sustainable, commercial scale biomass production should rely on …

Effect of salinity (15, 25, 35, 45, and 55‰) on growth, biochemical composition, and lipid
productivity of N annochloropsis oculata CS 179 was investigated under controlled …
