Efficient pH and dissolved CO conditions for indoor and outdoor cultures of green alga .

Efficient pH and dissolved CO conditions for indoor (50-450 mL scale) and outdoor (100-500 L scale) culture of a green alga BX1.5 strain that can produce useful intracellular lipids and extracellular polysaccharides were investigated for the first time in sp. The cultures harvested under 26 different conditions were analysed for pH, dissolved CO concentration, and the biomass of extracellular polysaccharides.

Characteristics and function of an extracellular polysaccharide from a green alga Parachlorella.

The green alga Parachlorella sp. BX1.5 is a new strain that can significantly coproduce lipids and polysaccharides, inside and outside the cells, respectively.

Dynamic Delta-like1 expression in presomitic mesoderm cells during somite segmentation.

During somite segmentation, the expression of clock genes such as Hes7 oscillates synchronously in the presomitic mesoderm (PSM). This synchronous oscillation slows down in the anterior PSM, leading to wave-like propagating patterns from the posterior to anterior PSM. Such dynamic expression depends on Notch signaling and is critical for somite formation.

Coproduction of lipids and extracellular polysaccharides from the novel green alga sp. BX1.5 depending on cultivation conditions.

A novel strain of microalga sp. BX1.5 was isolated and its unique properties of producing lipids and extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) characterized.
