Triacylglycerol (TG) is a storage lipid which serves as an energy reservoir and a source of
signalling molecules and substrates for membrane biogenesis. TG is essential for many …

Due to negative environmental influence and limited availability, petroleum-derived fuels
need to be replaced by renewable biofuels. Biodiesel has attracted intensive attention as an …

Maintaining the high standards that made the previous editions such well-respected and
widely used references, Food Lipids: Chemistry, Nutrition, and Biotechnology, Fourth Edition …

Microalga Chlorella protothecoides can grow heterotrophically with glucose as the carbon
source and accumulate high proportion of lipids. The microalgal lipids are suitable for …

In order to develop feasible production processes for microalgal biodiesel, the isolation of
high neutral lipid producing microalgae is crucial. Since the established Nile Red (NR) …

The adverse impacts of fossil fuels on the environment, specifically climate change, have
intensified the need for finding a sustainable alternative source of energy. Numerous studies …

Microalgae are being considered as a viable feedstock for large-scale production of
biodiesel. However, though it may look simpler to obtain lipids from microalgae, the overall …

Oleaginous yeasts can convert sugars to lipids with fatty acid profiles similar to those of
vegetable oils, making them attractive for production of biodiesel. Lignocellulosic biomass is …

Within a few decades, the world would move to a low carbon or zero carbon economy eras,
and renewable energy would become a dominant energy source, displacing the fossil fuels …

The alga Chlorella protothecoides is known to produce oil suitable for biodiesel preparation
by heterotrophic cultivation in media containing glucose as a carbon source. In this study …
