Modelling lipid production in microalgae
Microalgae offer potentially great opportunities for producing biofuel. In order to optimize triglycerid production, this article proposes a dynamical model of microalgal lipid production. In this model, intracellular carbon is divided between a functional pool and two storage pools (sugars and neutral lipids). The various intracellular carbon flows between these pools lead to a complex dynamic...
متن کاملLipid catabolism of relapsing fever borreliae.
Relapsing fever borreliae require lipid compounds for growth in vitro. In this study, the major pathways of lipid catabolism in three species of tick-borne relapsing fever borreliae were investigated. Thin-layer chromatography was used to compare chloroform-methanol extracts of fresh culture media with extracts of exhausted culture media after organisms were removed by centrifugation. The chrom...
متن کاملLipid Screening in Single Microalgae Using Hydrogel Microcapsule Arrays
We demonstrated a microwell array-based microfluidic system, allowing in situ analysis of the lipid content of individual microalgal cells in alginate hydrogel microcapsules. Alginate hydrogel microcapsules with a mean diameter of 26 μm, which encapsulate a single microalga stained with nondestructive lipophilic green fluorescent dye, BODIPY 505/515, were successfully docked inside the microwel...
متن کاملHigh Lipid Induction in Microalgae for Biodiesel Production
Oil-accumulating microalgae have the potential to enable large-scale biodiesel production without competing for arable land or biodiverse natural landscapes. High lipid productivity of dominant, fast-growing algae is a major prerequisite for commercial production of microalgal oil-derived biodiesel. However, under optimal growth conditions, large amounts of algal biomass are produced, but with ...
متن کاملNeanderthal ancestry drives evolution of lipid catabolism in contemporary Europeans
Although Neanderthals are extinct, fragments of their genomes persist in contemporary humans. Here we show that while the genome-wide frequency of Neanderthal-like sites is approximately constant across all contemporary out-of-Africa populations, genes involved in lipid catabolism contain more than threefold excess of such sites in contemporary humans of European descent. Evolutionally, these g...
