Dunaliella viridis TAV01: A Halotolerant, Protein-Rich Microalga from the Algarve Coast

Gabriel Bombo et al.

Summary: Dunaliella viridis TAV01 is a new strain with beneficial features including tolerance to harsh environmental conditions, high growth rates, and amino acid composition suitable for human consumption. Its identification was confirmed at the species level through evolutionary analysis of ITS1 and ITS2 regions, and supported by secondary structure analysis. TAV01 exhibits high protein and lipid contents, predominantly polyunsaturated fatty acids, and a balanced essential amino acid profile. The major carotenoid present is lutein. These qualities make D. viridis TAV01 a potential valuable resource for novel feed or food products.

Optimizing heterotrophic production of Chlorella sorokiniana SU-9 proteins potentially used as a sustainable protein substitute in aquafeed

Chun-Yen Chen et al.

Summary: Microalgae, specifically Chlorella sorokiniana SU-9, can be cultivated heterotrophically to produce high-quality proteins comparable to fishmeal and soybean meal. Optimal culture parameters were determined, and under these conditions, SU-9 exhibited high biomass content, protein content, and productivity. The production cost of SU-9 can be significantly reduced, making it a potential protein substitute in aquafeed.

Biomass, lipid accumulation kinetics, and the transcriptome of heterotrophic oleaginous microalga Tetradesmus bernardii under different carbon and nitrogen sources

Baoyan Gao et al.

Summary: T. bernardii showed rapid growth and high lipid accumulation in heterotrophic culture, making it a potential candidate for biomass and biofuel production. Transcriptome analysis revealed that multilevel regulation ensured the conversion from carbon to the synthesis of carbohydrate and lipid. As nitrogen was consumed, nitrogen metabolism-related genes were up-regulated to speed up the N metabolic cycle, and storage of carbohydrate mainly came from absorption of organic carbon source.

Ammonium Utilization in Microalgae: A Sustainable Method for Wastewater Treatment

Giovanna Salbitani et al.

Summary: Ammonium is a convenient nitrogen source for plant cell metabolism, but can be toxic to microalgae at high concentrations, depending on species. Its high concentrations in the environment pose risks like water pollution and eutrophication, necessitating nutrient removal from wastewater before discharge, with microalgae offering a sustainable alternative solution.

A new pilot-scale fermentation mode enhances Euglena gracilis biomass and paramylon (β-1,3-glucan) production

Mingcan Wu et al.

Summary: This study utilized a new pilot-scale fermentation mode to evaluate the changes in E. gracilis biomass and paramylon production. The results showed enhanced cell viability under mixotrophic conditions and accumulation of paramylon under heterotrophic conditions, with maximal biomass and paramylon contents reaching 86.2 g/L and 78.2%, respectively. Metabolomics analysis revealed important pathways related to biomass and paramylon production, providing a valuable theoretical basis for industrial production of E. gracilis and other microalgae.
