Direct lipid extraction from wet Chlamydomonas reinhardtii biomass using osmotic shock.
TL;DR: Osmotic shock treatment was applied directly to wet Chlamydomonas reinhardtii biomass with water content >99%, along with both polar and non-polar organic solvents and successfully determined that specific manipulation of biomass in certain cell phase could enhance lipid recovery further.
