Optimization of the culture medium and characterization of antioxidant compounds of a marine isolated microalga as a promising source in aquaculture feed

The metabolites of light: Untargeted metabolomic approaches bring new clues to understand light-driven acclimation of intertidal mudflat biofilm

“…The tetradecane and nonadecane measured in methanol extract of cultured marine microalgae Picochlorum sp. RCC486 were also reported as antimicrobial and antioxidant compounds (Banakar and Jayaraj, 2018;Faridha Begum et al, 2016;Safavi et al, 2021). The nonadecane was one of the main hydrocarbons produced by the diatom P.tricornum and its accumulation under dark and HL could be attributed to the diatom's compartment of the biofilm (Dodson and Leblond, 2015).…”

“…In the marine diatom Rhizosolenia setigera, the alkenes were suspected to play a role in their buoyancy and vertical migration (Sinninghe Damsté et al, 2000). The tetradecane and nonadecane were reported to have antioxidant properties (Banakar and Jayaraj, 2018;Faridha Begum et al, 2016;Safavi et al, 2021). In terrestrial plants and macroalgae, alka(e)nes are major constituents of waxes.…”

Harvesting Aurantiochytrium sp. SW1 via Flocculation Using Chitosan: Effects of Flocculation Parameters on Flocculation Efficiency and Zeta Potential

“…The production of DHA from thraustochytrids commonly involves upstream and downstream processing. Upstream processing such as strain development, as well as the development of fermentation processes that induce the cells to produce high biomass and lipid production, has been extensively studied and developed to date [9][10][11][12]. However, less focus has been placed on the development of downstream processing, especially the harvesting and dewatering of the lipid biomass, even though it is one of the major hurdles in lipids and DHA production associated with these microorganisms.…”
