Bioprospecting for bioactive compounds in microalgae: Antimicrobial compounds

Wendy A. Stirk et al.

Summary: Although there are many opportunities to use microalgae as antimicrobial agents, more efforts are needed to move beyond the characterization phase and advance them to the biotechnology phase. One challenge is the ability of microalgae to synthesize biologically active secondary metabolites in response to environmental triggers. A rigorous scientific approach is required to identify potential microalgae strains with good antimicrobial activity and develop them as antimicrobial agents. The commonly used disc diffusion assay for screening antimicrobial activity in microalgae is problematic and prone to producing false-positive and false-negative results. Quantitative minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values obtained through assays like the microdilution broth assay are more reliable and allow for result comparison among research groups. This review compiled a dataset of published MIC values for microalgae, with Cyanobacteria and Chlorophyta being the most well-represented phyla. Factors influencing antimicrobial activity, such as test microorganisms, microalgae taxonomy, extraction solvents, and growth phase at harvest, were assessed using this data. The activity was categorized as good if the MIC values were <1 mg/mL, moderate if the MIC values were 1-8 mg/mL, and weak if the MIC values were >8.0 mg/mL. Areas requiring further research, including screening a greater diversity of species, reporting negative results, testing culture supernatants for activity, exploring synergistic effects, and identifying antimicrobial compounds in Chlorophyta, were discussed. The successful development and commercialization of microalgae antimicrobial agents will likely increase as more microalgae are screened and compounds are identified.

Semi-continuous immobilized cultivation of Porphyridium cruentum for sulfated polysaccharides production

Sang-Il Han et al.

Summary: Semi-continuous immobilized cultivation of Porphyridium cruentum with calcium alginate beads increased cell biomass and daily SPs productivity, and combining blue wavelength illumination further enhanced phycobiliproteins content. Nutrient deficiencies in conjunction with immobilization doubled the daily SPs productivity compared to the control. The chemical composition and biological activity of the extracellular polymeric substances produced through immobilization were similar to those of the control, suggesting the potential application of calcium alginate beads-based immobilization for continuous and high-efficiency SPs production.
