Oleaginous potential of indigenously isolated fresh water microalgae for biofuel production
Fresh water samples from six perennial rain fed reservoirs were collected for isolation of microalgae by enrichment method. Eighteen isolates belonging to cyanophyta and chlorophyta were obtained after 15 days of incubation in BG-11 medium under 16: 8 light and dark cycle at room temperature. Upon e...

| description | Fresh water samples from six perennial rain fed reservoirs were collected for isolation of microalgae by enrichment method. Eighteen isolates belonging to cyanophyta and chlorophyta were obtained after 15 days of incubation in BG-11 medium under 16: 8 light and dark cycle at room temperature. Upon evaluation of oleaginous potential for future application in biodiesel synthesis, only three isolates BV3 (Nostoc sp.), BV4 (Nostoc sp.) and BV14 (Cyanobacteria) were selected. Lipid production, growth profile and lipid characteristic were also studied for the three isolates. The lipid content of the isolates BV 3, BV4 and BV14 were found to be 12.306 ± 1.313, 17.309 ± 2.129 and 26.567 ± 3.582% DW, respectively and lipid productivity recorded were 0.159 ± 0.011, 0.106 ± 0.007 and 0.046 ± 0.004 g L−1d−1, respectively. The specific growth rate was also determined for BV3 (0.177 d−1), BV4 (0.233 d−1) and BV14 (0.183 d−1). Analysis of lipid further revealed the presence of neutral lipids and saturated short chain alkanes. |
