MICROALGAE AS TOCOPHEROL PRODUCERS [PDF]
Microalgae are able to accumulate considerable amounts of tocopherols (up to 4 mg/g dry weight). The content of α-tocopherol to plant oils is low, whereas microalgae contain up to 97% of the tocochromanols that provides high bioactivity.

Biosynthese von Glycerin in Dunaliella tertiolecta unter Salzstress [PDF]
Abstract The microalgae Dunaliella tertiolecta phototrophically generates glycerol as an osmolyte in response to salt stress. This biogenic carbon sink is also a platform intermediate for the chemical sector. A synergistic genome and time resolved proteome analysis deciphered the metabolic pathways activated under salt stress. Immediately (30
