Transformation of Brewery Subproducts into Valuable Biomass Using Mixotrophic Culture of Chlorella pyrenoidosa and Associated Bacteria

Abstract To develop a biorefinery concept applied in the brewery industry, Chlorella pyrenoidosa and a consortium of associated bacteria were cultivated mixotrophically in a continuous photobioreactor using brewery low-value subproducts as an integrative process. Beer production residues were biochemical...

Chlorella sorokiniana and Chlorella minutissima exhibit antioxidant potentials, inhibit cholinesterases and modulate disaggregation of β-amyloid fibrils

BACKGROUND: Microalgae are aquatic chlorophyll-containing organisms comprising unicellular microscopic forms, and their biomasses are potential sources of bioactive compounds, biofuels and food-based products. However, the neuroprotective effects of microalgal biomass have not been fully explored. In thi...

Composición bioquímica y evaluación de la calidad proteica de la biomasa autotrófica de chlorella vulgaris
Biochemical composition and protein quality assessment of autotrophic biomass of Chlorella vulgaris

Rev. cuba. aliment. nutr; 13 (2), 1999
Se estudiaron la composición bioquímica y las características del perfil aminoacídico de la microalga Chlorella vulgaris, cultivada en régimen autotrófico, y se evaluó además la calidad de su proteína mediante métodos químicos. Los resultados evidenciaron que la biomasa de esta especie microal...
