Evaluation of Euglena gracilis 815 as a New Candidate for Biodiesel Production
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022 Euglena comprises over 200 species, of which Euglena gracilis is a model organism with a relatively high fatty acid content, making it an excellent potential source of biodiesel. This study isolated and characterized a new strain named E. gracilis 815. E.

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.

Glycosylated proteins in the protozoan alga Euglena gracilis: a proteomic approach
, 2023 Protein glycosylation, and in particular N-linked glycans, is a hallmark of eukaryotic cells and has been well-studied in mammalian cells and parasites. However, little research has been conducted to investigate the conservation and variation of protein ...
