The role of Euglena gracilis paramylon in modulating xylem hormone levels, photosynthesis and water-use efficiency in Solanum lycopersicum L. [PDF]

, 2017
-1,3-glucans such as paramylon act as elicitors in plants, modifying the hormonal levels and the physiological responses. Plant hormones affect all phases of the plant life cycle and their responses to environmental stresses, both biotic and abiotic. The

A low temperature-adapted Euglena gracilis ecotype for outdoor biomass production in colder climates

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Euglena gracilis strain Z is currently used for industrial purposes such as the production of the polysaccharide paramylon, lipids, and carotenoids. This strain shows promise for sustainable bioproduction, but its growth is inhibited at temperatures ...

Bioproducts From Euglena gracilis: Synthesis and Applications

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2019
In recent years, the versatile phototrophic protist Euglena gracilis has emerged as an interesting candidate for application-driven research and commercialisation, as it is an excellent source of dietary protein, pro(vitamins), lipids, and the β-1,3 ...

Selective Quenching of Peracetic Acid by Sodium Dithionite Enables Rapid, Non-Thermal Sterilization for Euglena gracilis Cultivation

Microorganisms
Peracetic acid (PAA) has strong biocidal activity against bacteria, fungi, and spores, even with short contact times. PAA-mediated sterilization is therefore an attractive method for sterilization of growth media that have heat-labile components or when ...

Euglena gracilis-derived β-1,3-glucan as a growth substrate for Lactococcus lactis—a snapshot of accompanying changes in transcriptomic and metabolomic profiles

Frontiers in Microbiology
β-1,3-glucan from Euglena gracilis is an emerging microalgal prebiotic. However, its potential to reprogram the metabolic profile of lactic acid bacteria has not been reported previously.

Cultivation of Euglena gracilis on Residues from a Food Industry

Environmental and Climate Technologies
Euglena gracilis is a photosynthetic, acidophilic flagellate, also classified as a microalga, growing also in mixotrophic conditions. It can accumulate high-value molecules, but its production is very expensive, especially due to the cost of the required

Exploration of Lipid Profile and Wax Ester Content from Local Strain Euglena sp. IDN33 Cultivated in Mixotrophic Condition Combined with Molasses Supplementation

Hayati Journal of Biosciences
The transition from fossil fuels to sustainable renewable energy is currently growing rapidly. Euglena sp. can be the source of biofuel. Molasses, in addition to Euglena sp., can increase the levels of paramylon and wax esters produced.

Crystal structures and crystalline elastic modulus of paramylon esters

Polymer, 2019
Abstract Paramylon is a β-1,3-glucan photosynthesized by Euglena. In this study, the four paramylon ester derivatives, paramylon propionate (PaPr), paramylon butyrate (PaBu), paramylon valerate (PaVa), paramylon hexanoate (PaHe), were prepared and their crystal structures were determined by wide-angle X-ray diffraction.
