Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.Abstract The vision of using microalgae to obtain organic chemicals in a carbon‐neutral manner is intriguing. It promises to produce various substances including biofuels by photosynthesis, without competing with agricultural land. Processes have been established whereby microalgae undergo a growth phase followed by a stress phase, which induces lipid ...

Salt-Induced Metabolic Changes in Dunaliella salina [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1980 An increase of medium NaCl concentration induces Dunaliella cells to evolve O(2) photosynthetically even in the absence of CO(2). This NaCl-induced O(2) evolution may reflect the induced conversion of reserve carbohydrate to glycerol. The quantum yield for the NaCl-induced O(2) evolution, in the absence of CO(2), is 1.5-fold higher than that obtained ...

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract Oil sands tailings ponds, such as those in northeastern Alberta, present environmental challenges due to slow sedimentation, water entrapment, and toxic naphthenic acids (NAs), which hinder water reclamation. This study assessed the tolerance and biodegradation potential of Chlorella vulgaris (C.

Molecular clone and expression of a NAD+-dependent glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase isozyme gene from the halotolerant alga Dunaliella salina. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Glycerol is an important osmotically compatible solute in Dunaliella. Glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (G3PDH) is a key enzyme in the pathway of glycerol synthesis, which converts dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) to glycerol-3-phosphate.
