Investigating the growth rate of Dunaliella tertiolecta in the optimum N:P ratio in mono and mixed cultures

Optimization of Pavlova gyrans biomass production and the fatty acid profile using a two-step approach

“…N and P concentrations in Opt are 15 and 2 times higher than those in Con. The optimal N : P ratio described here is different and higher than those presented by P. pinguis (24 : 1 and 12 : 1; 33 26 : 1 and 48 : 1 53 ) and Dunaliella tertiolecta (45 : 1 with a three-fold increase on N and P supply), 59 both grown using f/2-Si medium under low lighting. The N : P ratio has been claimed as an important parameter to manage microalgal growth and its biochemical composition.…”
