biochemical and physiological characterization of tree microalgae spp. as candidates for food supplement
with increasing world populations, production of cost-effective and proper nourishment sources that can rapidly produce large amounts of nutritional value are needed. microalgae are publicly used as nutrient supplement. in this research a screening of endemic potent microalgae was carried out. chlorella , scenedesmus and spirulina sp. were isolated and purified and cultivated in liquid proper m...
متن کاملEffects of salinity on growth and fatty acid composition of green microalgae Dunaliella bardawil as a candidate source for biofuel production
Microalgae as a source of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, pigments, pharmaceutical and food metabolites, has received more focus by biological researchers at last decades. The amount and composition of fatty acids produced by microalgae depended on biomass production and environmental factors such as changes in salinity, light and nutrient availability. In this study, the green microalga...
متن کاملMicroalgae as a safe food source for animals: nutritional characteristics of the acidophilic microalga Coccomyxa onubensis
BACKGROUND Edible microalgae are marine or fresh water mesophilic species. Although the harvesting of microalgae offers an abundance of opportunities to the food and pharmaceutical industries, the possibility to use extremophilic microalgae as a food source for animals is not well-documented. OBJECTIVE We studied the effects of dietary supplementation of a powdered form of the acidophilic mic...
متن کاملComparing Chemical Composition and Digestibility of Pedicels and Palm Leaves as a Source for Livestock Feeding by in vitro and in situ Techniques
The aim of this study was to determine the chemical composition and in vitro digestibility, and to estimate the in vitro fermentation parameters of palm leaves and pedicels from Ghars palm variety. A rumen in situ technique was also used to examine In vitro Digestible Dry Matter (IDDM), In vitro Digestible Crude Protein (IDCP), and In vitro Digestible Neutral Fiber (IDNF), and rate and extent o...
متن کاملMicroalgae as a source of high-value bioactive compounds.
Microalgae are one of the oldest microorganisms, that grow in various hostile environments, ranging from deserts to Antarctica. The microalgae sustain life in such harsh environments through generation of secondary metabolites. Microalgae biosynthesize a large number of diverse bioactive metabolites with activities on cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and infectious diseases. Here, we highlig...
