Microalgae are potential producers of bulk food and feed compounds, chemicals, and
biofuels. To produce these bulk products competitively, it is important to keep costs of raw …

Microalgae are attracting renewed interest from both the scientific and public communities
owing to their potential applications as sustainable feed stocks for the production of biofuels …

Microalgae constitute a diverse group of eukaryotic unicellular organisms that are of interest
for pure and applied research. Owing to their natural synthesis of value‐added natural …

Microalgae-derived lipids in the form of triacylglycerols (TAGs) are considered an alternative
resource for the production of biofuels and food commodities. Large scale production of …

A method to determine the content and composition of total fatty acids present in microalgae
is described. Fatty acids are a major constituent of microalgal biomass. These fatty acids can …

Microalgae are a promising future source for sustainable edible oils. To make microalgal oil
a cost-effective alternative for common vegetable oils, increasing TAG productivity and TAG …

Microalgae perform photosynthesis at a high efficiency under low light conditions. However,
under bright sunlight, it is difficult to achieve a high photosynthetic efficiency, because cells …

Phytoplankton physiology is dynamic and highly responsive to the environment.
Phytoplankton acclimate to changing environmental conditions by a complex reallocation of …

In this paper the hypothesis was tested whether TAG accumulation serves as an energy sink
when microalgae are exposed to an energy imbalance caused by nutrient limitation. In our …

Over the past ten years a great deal of literature has focused on the biotechnological
potential of microalgal commercial applications, mainly in the field of biofuel production …
