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.

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 ...

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

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.

Marine yeast isolation and industrial application [PDF]
Over the last century, terrestrial yeasts have been widely used in various industries, such as baking, brewing, wine, bioethanol and pharmaceutical protein production. However, only little attention has been given to marine yeasts. Recent research showed

Cocoa butter-like lipid production ability of non-oleaginous and oleaginous yeasts under nitrogen-limited culture conditions. [PDF]
Cocoa butter (CB) extracted from cocoa beans is the main raw material for chocolate production. However, growing chocolate demands and limited CB production has resulted in a shortage of CB supply.

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 ...

Lipid production from lignocellulosic material by oleaginous yeasts [PDF]
Oleaginous yeasts are a potential lipid source for production of fuels, chemicals and food or feed and use of lignocellulosic biomass as feedstock is considered a sustainable approach.
