Overview

Trial assesses productivity and lipid content in cyanobacterial strains under mixotrophic and autotrophic conditions, indicating optimal growth factors.

Key Points

  • Cyanobacterial strains showed increased biomass production under mixotrophic conditions compared to autotrophic ones.
  • Static glucose medium led to the highest biomass yield for Anabaena laxa, Anabaena fertilissima, and Nostoc muscorum, with yields of 3.6, 3.1, and 5.2 g L-1, respectively.
  • Glucose enhanced lipid content in Anabaena laxa and Nostoc muscorum, recording 293.9 and 253.5 µg g-1 fresh weight.
  • Myristic, palmitoleic, and arachidonic acids were the most abundant fatty acids identified in all cyanobacterial strains.
