“…Plants have evolved a variety of physiological and biochemical mechanisms to cope with environmental hazards. Lipid production, extreme temperatures, lighting, the amount of carbon dioxide, UV exposure, salt content and nutrient starvation are the typical abiotic stress factors that significantly affect the biochemical composition of algal cells [ 88 , 89 , 90 , 91 , 92 , 93 ].…”

“…Nutrient stress causes the generation of free radical species in the cell and can thus result in changes in antioxidant content [ 111 ]. Several studies have investigated the influence of nutrient stress on metabolic changes in microalgae, such as the production enhancing of lipids (reviewed in [ 93 ]), carbohydrates [ 112 , 113 ] and/or secondary metabolites [ 114 ].…”

“…On the other hand, the European algal sector is distributed in 43% of companies producing microalgae, and 57% is focused on marine algae. In addition, Europe is estimated to be the leader in the Spirulina market, and it is known that the largest volumes of microalgal biomass are produced in countries such as Ireland, Norway, and France [ 99 ].…”

“…Notably, the production of microalgal PUFAs is considered more sustainable when compared with aquaculture. Current methods of fish production cannot meet the growing demand for omega-3 fatty acids [ 140 ]. PUFAs are crucial for maintenance of healthy sleep patterns, mood stability and brain health.…”
