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...
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...
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...
