Lipid and Biomass Production by the Halotolerant Microalga Nannochloropsis salina
The effect of environmental factors on cell-lipid content, on the growth rate and on the overall productivity ofNannochloropsis salina was tested in the laboratory and in outdoor cultures. Under optimum conditions in the laboratory, the maximum growth rate (#max.) was 0"030 h -1, which corresponds to a doubling time of 23 h. Cellular lipid content was affected by the phase of growth and the tem...
متن کاملConversion of woody biomass into fermentable sugars by cellulase from Agaricus arvensis.
Agaricus arvensis, a newly isolated basidiomycetous fungus, was found to secrete efficient cellulases. The strain produced the highest endoglucanase (EG), cellobiohydrolase (CBH) and beta-glucosidase (BGL) activities of 0.3, 3.2 and 8U/mg-protein, respectively, with rice straw as the carbon source. Saccharification of the woody biomass with A. arvensis cellulase as the enzyme source released a ...
متن کاملFermentable sugars by chemical hydrolysis of biomass.
Abundant plant biomass has the potential to become a sustainable source of fuels and chemicals. Realizing this potential requires the economical conversion of recalcitrant lignocellulose into useful intermediates, such as sugars. We report a high-yielding chemical process for the hydrolysis of biomass into monosaccharides. Adding water gradually to a chloride ionic liquid-containing catalytic a...
متن کاملHeterotrophic cultivation of Nannochloropsis salina for enhancing biomass and lipid production
Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to enhance the biomass and lipid content in Nannochloropsis salina due to its economic importance. Preliminary screening results revealed that the heterotrophically cultivated N. salina with various carbon and nitrogen sources yielded higher biomass (0.91 ± 0.0035 g/L) and lipid content (37.1 ± 0.49 mg/L) than that of the photoautotrophical cultivatio...
متن کاملEffects of overexpression of a bHLH transcription factor on biomass and lipid production in Nannochloropsis salina
BACKGROUND Microalgae are considered promising alternative energy sources because they consume CO2 and accumulate large amounts of lipids that can be used as biofuel. Nannochloropsis is a particularly promising microalga due to its high growth rate and lipid content, and the availability of genomic information. Transcription factors (TFs) are global regulators of biological pathways by up- or d...
