Journal ArticleDOI

Biotechnological valorisation of raw glycerol discharged after bio-diesel (fatty acid methyl esters) manufacturing process: Production of 1,3-propanediol, citric acid and single cell oil

Seraphim Papanikolaou, +9 more
- 01 Jan 2008 - 
TL;DR: Fatty acid analysis of total cellular lipids showed that glycerol concentration increase in the growth medium somehow increased the cellular unsaturated fatty acids content of lipids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluating renewable carbon sources as substrates for single cell oil production by Cunninghamella echinulata and Mortierella isabellina.

Stylianos Fakas, +5 more
- 01 Apr 2009 - 
TL;DR: Significant differences in the process of lipid accumulation as related to the carbon sources used were observed for both microorganisms, and the growth of both C. echinulata and M. isabellina on raw glycerol resulted in lower yields in terms of both biomass and oil produced than the growth on xylose.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolic activities of biotechnological interest in Yarrowia lipolytica grown on glycerol in repeated batch cultures

Anna Makri, +2 more
- 01 Apr 2010 - 
TL;DR: This study allows concluding that Y. lipolytica successfully converts glycerol via phosphorylation pathway into valuable biotechnological products, such as single cell oil and citric acid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Citric acid production by Yarrowia lipolytica cultivated on olive-mill wastewater-based media

Seraphim Papanikolaou, +4 more
- 01 May 2008 - 
TL;DR: Yarrowia lipolytica ACA-DC 50109 cultivated on olive-mill wastewater, enriched with commercial-industrial glucose, presented an efficient cell growth and the potentiality of O.M.W.Ws utilisation in the fermentation process of citric acid production is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lipid production by oleaginous Mucorales cultivated on renewable carbon sources

Seraphim Papanikolaou, +4 more
- 01 Nov 2007 - 
TL;DR: Hydrolytic enzymes activities of both strains seemed to be low enough to saturate their metabolic capabilities, which seemed a major cause for the lower amount of lipid accumulated during growth on complex media compared with that on glucose.
