Coproduction of lipids and carotenoids by the novel green alga sp. depending on cultivation conditions.

A novel green alga sp. D3-1 was isolated, and its unique and significant lipid and carotenoid coproduction capability was characterised depending on cultivation conditions. The main component of produced lipids was triacylglycerol under nutrient depletion conditions, in which fatty-methyl-esters made up 20-44% of the dry cell weight (DCW) and consisted of abundant C16:0 and C18:1 fatty acids.

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.

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.
