Isolation, identification and optimization of culture condition of freshwater microalgae in Northwestern Ontario, Canada for sustainable lipid and biomass production
Native freshwater microalgae play a crucial role in biofuel production due to their unique characteristics and environmental suitability. This study investigated the diversity of microalgae species in various freshwater ecosystems across Northwestern Ontario, Canada and isolated microalgae species with higher biomass and lipid production capacity. Among the 75 strains, a total of five microalgae strains with higher lipid production and growth were identified using molecular and morphological approaches. Among four different photoperiods, 16L:8D light/dark cycle produced significantly higher biomass and lipids for Chlorella sorokiniana, Chlorella vulgaris, and Chlamydomonas sp. The results indicated a rich diversity of microalgae species from the region of Northern Ontario, with promising lipid accumulation isolates with high biomass productivity. This study highlighted the potential for utilizing native microalgae strains as the source of renewable lipids and biomass for biofuel and biomolecule production.
期刊介绍:
Algal Research is an international phycology journal covering all areas of emerging technologies in algae biology, biomass production, cultivation, harvesting, extraction, bioproducts, biorefinery, engineering, and econometrics. Algae is defined to include cyanobacteria, microalgae, and protists and symbionts of interest in biotechnology. The journal publishes original research and reviews for the following scope: algal biology, including but not exclusive to: phylogeny, biodiversity, molecular traits, metabolic regulation, and genetic engineering, algal cultivation, e.g. phototrophic systems, heterotrophic systems, and mixotrophic systems, algal harvesting and extraction systems, biotechnology to convert algal biomass and components into biofuels and bioproducts, e.g., nutraceuticals, pharmaceuticals, animal feed, plastics, etc. algal products and their economic assessment
