STARCH SYNTHESIS IN CHLORELLA VULGARIS

Canadian Journal of Biochemistry and Physiology, 1954
Chlorella vulgaris was found to deposit starch, in amounts up to 20% of the dry weight of the cells, when grown in a medium containing glucose. The cells did not contain cellulose or chitin. The starch was difficult to extract, being associated with an alkali-soluble, dextrorotatory, cell-wall polysaccharide.

Electrotransformation of Chlorella vulgaris

Plant Cell Reports, 1999
Using hygromycin B resistance as a marker for selection, we have established the conditions required for the transformation of Chlorella vulgaris. The exponentially grown C. vulgaris cells were transformed by electroporation with plasmid pIG121-Hm, and transformants were selected with hygromycin B at a concentration of 50 μg/ml.

Dispersed ozone flotation of Chlorella vulgaris

Bioresource Technology, 2010
Flotation separation of Chlorella vulgaris, a species with excellent potential for CO(2) capture and lipid production, was studied using dispersed ozone gas. Pure oxygen aeration did not yield flotation. Conversely, applying ozone effectively separation algae from broth through flotation. The ozone dose applied for sufficient algal flotation is

Coagulation-membrane filtration of Chlorella vulgaris

Bioresource Technology, 2012
Filtration-based separation of Chlorella vulgaris, a species with excellent potential for CO(2) capture and lipid production, was investigated using a surface-modified hydrophilic polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane. Coagulation using polyaluminum chloride (PACl) attained maximum turbidity removal at 200 mg L(-1) as Al(2)O(3).

Fluorescence studies on deuterated Chlorella vulgaris

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biophysics including Photosynthesis, 1966
Abstract Chlorella vulgaris grown in 99.8% heavy water show absorption spectra similar to the absorption spectra shown by those grown in ordinary water; there appears to be a minor shift of about 1 mμ towards shorter wavelengths in the blue and the red absorption bands, and a slight increase in chlorophyll b to a and carotenoids to chlorophyll

Autoinhibitor Production by Chlorella vulgaris

American Journal of Botany, 1964
Filtrates from certain liquid cultures of Chlorella vulgaris (Columbian strain) developed sufficient peroxide content, after a few days’ storage, to inhibit further growth of Chlorella when they were used to prepare fresh culture media. Similar inhibition was observed when Chlorella was cultured in media containing various added organic peroxides ...

Gold uptake by Chlorella vulgaris

Journal of Applied Phycology, 1995
This paper describes a study on the uptake of gold (III) ions by viable and treated cells of the unicellular alga, Chlorella vulgaris. Inactivating the algal cells by various physical/chemical treatments resulted in a considerable enhancement in the uptake capacity over the pristine cells.

Production of Protein and Lipid by Chlorella vulgaris and Chlorella pyrenoidosa

Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 1963
Cultures of Chlorella vulgaris reach the stationary phase of their growth cycle more slowly than cultures of C. pyrenoidosa when both are provided with conditions favorable for their growth. But after 3 weeks of incubation, the yields from the two organisms are nearly identical in terms of packed volume, dry weight, and cell population.

Chlorella vulgaris: A miracle plant?

2011 Fourth International Conference on Modeling, Simulation and Applied Optimization, 2011
Chlorella vulgaris (C. vulgaris), a unicellular green microalgae, has been widely used as a food supplement. It was reported to have massive amount of antioxidants such as carotenoids, vitamins E & C and enriched with several minerals. However not many studies have evaluated the chemopreventive potential of this algae against cancers.

The fatty acid metabolism of Chlorella vulgaris

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1965
Abstract 1. 1. Transferring Chlorella vulgaris from media containing organic carbon compounds to phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) under illumination, causes a rapid increase in the content of linoleic , α-linolenic acids. 2. 2. In media containing carbohydrate little 14 CO 2 is fixed into long chain fatty acids. 3. 3.
