Isolation and identification of microalgal strains and evaluation of their fatty acid profiles for biodiesel production.

TL;DR: The isolation and identification of Microalgal Strains and Evaluation of Their Fatty Acid Profiles for Biodiesel Production and the evaluation of their fatty acid profiles for biodiesel production showed promising results.

Biodiesel Production from Mixed Culture Algae Via a Wet Lipid Extraction Procedure

TL;DR: The capability of this procedure to extract lipids from wet algal biomass, to reduce chlorophyll contamination of the algal oil, and to generate feedstock material for the production of additional bio-products provides the basis for reducing scale-up costs associated with theproduction of algal biofuels and bioproducts.

Screeni̇ng and opti̇mi̇zati̇on of culture medi̇a for chlorella sp.as a raw material for bi̇odi̇esel producti̇on

TL;DR: This investigation studied the effect of different media i.e Blue green-11(BG-11), Bold basal medium, Fog’s medium and Basal medium on microalgae growth and lipid productivity, and found BG-11 medium was observed best for biodiesel production with higher lipid yield.

Purification and properties of unicellular blue-green algae (order Chroococcales).

TL;DR: Electron microscopic investigations, together with analytical data on cell wall composition and ribosomal structure, have revealed the common denominators, which are fundamental: bacteria and blue-green algae are the only organisms with cells of the procaryotic type.
