Microbial Lipid Production with Oleaginous Yeasts
Oleaginous microorganisms are able to convert carbon sources into storage lipids which are suited for diverse industrial applications as alternative for plant oil, fossil fuels and fish oil. A coupled process of oleaginous yeast and microalgae was performed to recycle the emitted greenhouse gas CO2 produced by the heterotrophic yeast.

Carnitine acetyltransferase activity in oleaginous yeasts [PDF]
The highest activities of carnitine acetyltransferase (CAT) were found in non-oleaginous yeasts (Candida utilis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae); lower activities, ranging from 50% down to 3% of the highest values, were found in various strains of oleaginous yeasts (Candida curvata, Lipomyces starkeyi, Rhodosporidium toruloides and Trichosporon cutaneum).

Comparative proteomics profile of lipid-cumulating oleaginous yeast: an iTRAQ-coupled 2-D LC-MS/MS analysis. [PDF]
Accumulation of intracellular lipid in oleaginous yeast cells has been studied for providing an alternative supply for energy, biofuel. Numerous studies have been conducted on increasing lipid content in oleaginous yeasts.

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.

Oleaginous yeast as a component in fish feed [PDF]
AbstractThis study investigates the replacement of vegetable oil (VO) in aquaculture feed for Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) with oil produced by the oleaginous yeast Lipomyces starkeyi grown in lignocellulose (wheat straw) hydrolysate. VO is extensively used to partially replace fish oil in aquaculture feed, which can be seen as non-sustainable.

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.

Identification of oleaginous yeasts that metabolize aromatic compounds [PDF]
Abstract The valorization of lignin is critical for the economic viability of the bioeconomy. Microbial metabolism is advantageous for handling the myriad of aromatic compounds resulting from lignin chemical or enzymatic depolymerization.

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)

Biolubricants refer to eco-friendly, biodegradable, and non-toxic lubricants. Their applications are still limited compared to mineral oils; however, their sustainable credentials are making them increasingly attractive.
