Microalgae as bioreactors

Plant Cell Reports, 2005
Microalgae already serve as a major natural source of valuable macromolecules including carotenoids, long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and phycocolloids. As photoautotrophs, their simple growth requirements make these primitive plants potentially attractive bioreactor systems for the production of high-value heterologous proteins.

Milking of microalgae

Trends in Biotechnology, 2004
The low productivity of algal cultures in the production of high-value compounds is the most significant bottleneck for commercialization of this technology. Cultures in which cell mass is reused for continuous production are proposed as a solution to overcome this problem.

Biodiesel from microalgae

Biotechnology Advances, 2007
Continued use of petroleum sourced fuels is now widely recognized as unsustainable because of depleting supplies and the contribution of these fuels to the accumulation of carbon dioxide in the environment. Renewable, carbon neutral, transport fuels are necessary for environmental and economic sustainability.

Microalgae Culture

2022
Energy is becoming one of the most expensive production inputs nowadays.Energy reserves are starting to run out and their polluting effects have been seenaround the world. Therefore, there is an urgent need for renewable energy sourcesinstead of fossil fuels. One of these energy sources is algae biomass, which is seen aspromising for biofuel production.

Carotenoids in Microalgae

2016
Carotenoids are a class of isoprenoids synthesized by all photosynthetic organisms as well as by some non-photosynthetic bacteria and fungi with broad applications in food, feed and cosmetics, and also in the nutraceutical and pharmaceutical industries.

Biodiesel from Microalgae

2010
The development of industrial processes for large-scale production of biofuels , in particular biodiesel , is one of the most pursued purposes of research teams, companies, and governments all in the world, as consequence of a necessary reduction of CO2 emissions and the need of renewable and affordable energy sources.

Vision in microalgae

Planta, 1997
Flagellate green algae such as Chlamydomonas and related genera are guided by their eyes to places where light conditions are optimal for photosynthetic growth. These eyes constitute the simplest and most common visual system found in nature. The eyes contain optics, photoreceptors and the elementary components of a signal-transduction chain. Rhodopsin

Microalgae Technology

2014
Replacing fossil fuels with biofuels is a possible strategy to solve the problems of global greenhouse gas emission and exhaustible resource depletion. The development of clean, renewable energy has attracted considerable interest from academic and industrial circles.

Photosynthesis in microalgae

2004
An understanding of photosynthesis is fundamental for microalgal biotechnology. The process of photosynthesis can be expressed as a light-driven redox reaction in which carbon dioxide is converted to carbohydrates and oxygen is released as a side-product. This chapter describes the processes in detail from light capture to carbon fixation.
