Proteomic Responses of Dark-Adapted Euglena gracilis and Bleached Mutant Against Light Stimuli
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022 Euglena gracilis (E. gracilis) has secondary endosymbiotic chloroplasts derived from ancient green algae. Its chloroplasts are easily lost under numerous conditions to become permanently bleached mutants.

The Endogenous Metabolism of Euglena gracilis [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1961 SUMMARY: The endogenous respiratory rate of non-photosynthetic Euglena gracilis var. bacillaris is remarkably constant under varied conditions of growth and incubation. After 60–90 min. of slightly more rapid respiration, the endogenous oxygen uptake averages about 6.5 μl. O2/million cells/ hr., and this rate can be maintained for at least 26 hr.

MICROALGAE AS TOCOPHEROL PRODUCERS [PDF]
Biotechnologia Acta, 2014 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.

The Cryopreservation of Euglena gracilis [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1978 A method for the cryopreservation of Euglena gracilis is described; for 26 strains the recovery on thawing was at least 30%. Methanol (10%, v/v) was the only effective cryo-protectant for freezing to, and thawing from, -196 °C, though the recovery of cells depended on the rates of cooling and warming.
