Selection and optimization of single cell oil production from Rodotorula 110 using environmental waste as substrate [PDF]
Micro-organisms such as bacteria, yeasts, molds and algae that accumulate lipid more than 20% of their biomass are called oleaginous. Microbial lipid has a lot of similarity to the oil obtained from plants and animals.

Fatty alcohols production by oleaginous yeast [PDF]
Abstract We have engineered Rhodosporidium toruloides to produce fatty alcohols by expressing a fatty acyl-CoA reductase from Marinobacter aquaeolei VT8. Production of fatty alcohols in flasks was achieved in different fermentation media at titers ranging from 0.2 to 2 g/L.

Biotransformation of volatile fatty acids by oleaginous and non-oleaginous yeast species [PDF]
The possibility of utilizing volatile fatty acids (VFA)-containing waste substrates from biotechnological and industrial processes was investigated by cultivating both oleaginous (Candida sp., Rhodotorula glutinis, Trichosporon cutaneum, Yarrowia lipolytica) and non-oleaginous (Kluyveromyces polysporus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Torulaspora delbrueckii)

Lipid Turnover in Oleaginous Yeasts [PDF]
SUMMARY: When eight strains of the oleaginous yeasts Candida curvata, Lipomyces starkeyi, Rhodosporidium toruloides and Trichosporon cutaneum were starved of carbon after having accumulated lipid up to 34% of their biomass, the lipid was readily converted to new biomass in all cases except the two strains of L. starkeyi. When C.

The history, state of the art and future prospects for oleaginous yeast research
Lipid-based biofuels, such as biodiesel and hydroprocessed esters, are a central part of the global initiative to reduce the environmental impact of the transport sector. The vast majority of production is currently from first-generation feedstocks, such

Engineering of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for the accumulation of high amounts of triacylglycerol
Background Fatty acid-based substances play an important role in many products, from food supplements to pharmaceutical products and biofuels. The production of fatty acids, mainly in their esterified form as triacylglycerol (TAG), has been intensively ...
