Eighteen new oleaginous yeast species
Abstract Of 1600 known species of yeasts, about 70 are known to be oleaginous, defined as being able to accumulate over 20 % intracellular lipids. These yeasts have value for fundamental and applied research. A survey of yeasts from the Phaff Yeast Culture Collection, University of California Davis was performed to identify additional ...

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.

Background: Sugars from sweet sorghum stalks can be used to produce ethanol and also to grow oleaginous yeasts. Instead of two separate processes, in this paper we propose a different route producing ethanol and microbial oil in two consecutive ...

Isolation and Characterization of Oleaginous Yeast
Oleaginous yeast are known to synthesize and accumulate large amount of intracellular triacylglycerol. Hence, they are considered to be one of the most promising alternate sources for oil production. In this regard, the present study was undertaken to isolate, characterize and screen oleaginous yeast for biomass and lipid production.

Exploitation of Oleaginous Yeasts for the Production of Microbial Oils from Agricultural Biomass
Lignocellulosic wastes from Arundo donax (AR) and Sorghum bicolor (SB) were used as a source of fermentable sugars for culturing the oleaginous yeasts Lipomyces starkey. In order to minimize the generation of inhibitors of the microbial growth, that is a

Recent Advances in using Lipomyces starkeyi for the Production of Single-Cell Oil
The clean energy demand and limited fossil fuel reserves require an alternate source that is sustainable and eco-friendly. This demand for clean energy steered the introduction of biofuels such as bioethanol and biodiesel.

Oleaginicity of the yeast strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae D5A [PDF]
The model yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is not known to be oleaginous. However, an industrial wild-type strain, D5A, was shown to accumulate over 20% storage lipids from glucose when growth is nitrogen-limited compared to no more than 7% lipid accumulation without nitrogen stress.To elucidate the mechanisms of S.
