Abstract

The influence of various light intensity on the lipid productivity, fatty acids profile, and biodiesel properties of Choricystis sp. AL045 were examined. Choricystis sp. LBB13-AL045 was a high lipid content microalgal strain (up to 42.49 ± 0.41% per dry weight basis) with great performance of its growth (specific growth rate and biomass productivity were up to 0.802 ± 0.013 day-1 and 108.57 ± 8.07 mg L-1 day-1, respectively). Such results indicated its high lipid productivity and its potency to be used for biodiesel production. The treatment of various light intensities on the microalgal culture resulted obvious differences in lipid productivity and fatty acids composition. Maximum lipid productivity (46.13 ± 3.43 mg L-1 day-1) was at 405 µmol m-2 s-1 of light intensity. The fatty acids profiles of four light intensities treatments were quite similar; the major components of fatty acid obtained from Choricystis sp. LBB13-AL045 oil were oleic acid (C18:1) and palmitic acid (C16:0), which provided a strong indication of high-quality biodiesel. Biodiesel properties were determined by empirical equations and found to be within the limits of biodiesel standard SNI 7182:2015, ASTMD6751-08 and EN14214.

Abstract

Three strains of fast-growing microalgae were investigated in this study for their potential of lipid production and its possible use in health application. Lipid content, lipid productivity, and fatty acids profile of the 3 mi-croalgae strains were also analyzed. The strain of LBB13-2-AL045 and LBB13-2-AL048 possessed highest lipid content (49.08 ± 0.25%) and lipid productivity (40.27 ± 1.91 mg.L-1.day-1), respectively, among the other tested strains. The fatty acids profile from the 3 strains exhibited its possible use in health application. The two strains of LBB13-2-AL046 and LBB13-2-AL048 possessed high valuable fatty acids of polyunsaturated fatty ac-ids (PUFA) omega-3 and omega-6, whereas LBB13-2- AL045 possessed balance ratio of saturated fatty acid (SFA) : monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) : PUFA (1 : 1.3 : 1) as is recommended by American Heart As-sociation (AHA) (1 : 1.4 : 0.8). The high content of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids indicated that the algal lipids of two strains (LBB13-2-AL046 and LBB13-2-AL048) were potential to be applied in cardiovascular health. The balance ratio of SFA : MUFA: PUFA as is recommended by AHA indicated that the algal oil of LBB13-2-AL045 strain was recommended in order to generate the best LDL/HDL ratio.
