This paper presents a method to estimate the biomass of Spirulina cultivated on solid medium with sugarcane bagasse as a support, in view of the difficulty in determining biomass concentrations in bioprocesses, particularly those conducted in semi-solid or solid media. The genus Spirulina of the family Oscillatoriaceae comprises the group of multicellular filamentous cyanobacteria (blue-green microalgae). Spirulina is used as fish feed in aquaculture, as a food supplement, a source of vitamins, pigments, antioxidants and fatty acids. Therefore, its growth parameters are extremely important in studies of the development and optimization of bioprocesses. For studies of biomass growth, Spirulina platensis was cultured on solid medium using sugarcane bagasse...

The influence of aeration on algal growth and gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) production in a bubble column photobioreactor was investigated. Studies were performed in a 20-L reactor at different aeration rates (0.2-2.5 vvm). Static, continuous, and periodic operation of air resulted in 41.9%, 88.4%, and 108% air saturation of dissolved oxygen, for which the corresponding values of GLA were 2.3, 6.5, and 7.5 mg·g-1 dry cell weight, respectively. An increase in the aeration rate from 0.2 to 2.5 vvm enhanced both the specific growth rate and GLA content under periodic sparging in the bicarbonate medium. With a 6-fold increase in the aeration rate, the GLA content of the alga increased by 69.64% (5.6-9.5 mg· g-1 dry cell weight). In addition, the total fatty acid...

BABT

Abomohra,Abo El-Fatah; El-Shouny,Wagih; Sharaf,Mona; Abo-Eleneen,Mai.

This work aimed to study the influence of gamma radiation on the growth and production of some active substances of Arthrospira platensis. Biomass production was significantly inhibited (p ≤ 0.05) by 21 and 34%, with respect to the control at 2.0 and 2.5 kGy, respectively. Chlorophyll-a content showed 11% reduction at 2.5 kGy compared to the control. As a result of growth and Chl-a inhibition, chlorophyll productivity recorded a continuous significant decrease below the control in the cells exposed to 1, 1.5, 2 and 2.5 kGy by 8, 12, 15 and 25%, respectively after 15 days of incubation. In addition, phycobillins productivity showed significant decrease by 10 and 36% below the control at 2 and 2.5 kGy of gamma radiation, respectively. Protein production...

In order to find out optimum culture condition for algal growth, the effect of light irradiance and temperature on growth rate, biomass composition and pigment production of Spirulina platensis were studied in axenic batch cultures. Growth kinetics of cultures showed a wide range of temperature tolerance from 20 ºC to 40 ºC. Maximum growth rate, cell production with maximum accumulation of chlorophyll and phycobilliproteins were found at temperature 35 ºC and 2,000 lux light intensity. But with further increase in temperature and light intensity, reduction in growth rate was observed. Carotenoid content was found maximum at 3,500 lux. Improvement in the carotenoid content with increase in light intensity is an adaptive mechanism of cyanobacterium...

The accumulation of polyunsaturated fatty acids by algae Spirulina platensis and Chlorella minutissima was studied. Response of these organisms to the substituted pyridazinone, SAN 9785, an inhibitor of the long chain fatty acid desaturase, indicated that fatty acid synthesis and their desaturation were regulated differently in these organisms. While the pool of palmitic acid, the precursor for the unsaturated C18 fatty acids, was stringently maintained in the green alga C. minutissima, in the cyanobacterium S. platensis the level of palmitic acid was liberally maintained in spite of the enhanced accumulation of unsaturated C18 fatty acids.

Spirulina platensis effects on the levels of total cholesterol, HDL and triacylglycerols in rabbits fed with a hypercholesterolemic diet

BABT

Colla,Luciane Maria; Muccillo-Baisch,Ana Luiza; Costa,Jorge Alberto Vieira.

In this work, hypercholesterolemia was induced in rabbits by feeding them a high cholesterol diet (CD, 350 mg/d) and the effects of supplementing this diet with 0.5 g/d Spirulina platensis was evaluated by measuring the levels of serum total-cholesterol (TC), triacylglycerols (TAG) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL-cholesterol) at the start of the experiment and after 30 d and 60 d. It was found that the levels of serum cholesterol decreased from 1,054±101 mg.dL-1 in the rabbits fed a CD without S. platensis to 516±163 mg.dL-1 to those fed with a high cholesterol diet supplemented with S. platensis (significant at p <0.0001). The addition of Spirulina to the cholesterolemic diet did not cause significative decrease on the levels of triacylglycerols in...

Дробецкая, И. В.; Минюк, Г. С..

Исследованы ростовые характеристики, содержание белка и фотосинтетических пигментов Spirulina (Arthrospira) platensis в зависимости от концентраций различных форм азота (N) (мочевины, нитратов, и их смесей) в питательной среде. Спирулину выращивали методом непропорционально проточной культуры в открытых бассейнах объемом 100 л при естественном освещении. В контроле (К) питательной средой служила среда Заррука, в которой содержание нитратного азота (N+5) было увеличено до 500 мг/л (2,6 г/л NaNO3 и 0,52 г/л KNO3). В вариантах эксперимента № 1-6 нитраты были полностью заменены на мочевину (NH2)2 CO в концентрациях 10, 30, 60, 100, 300 и 400 мг N-3/л. В вариантах № 7-12 источником азота служили смеси (NH2)2 CO и нитратов различного состава. Общее содержание...

Углеродный баланс в культуре цианобактерии Spirulina platensis (Nordst.) Geitl. при выращивании на различных источниках углерода

ХРАНЕНИЕ ВОДНО-СПИРТОВОГО ЭКСТРАКТА С-ФИКОЦИАНИНА, ПОЛУЧЕННОГО ИЗ МИКРОВОДОРОСЛИ SPIRULINA PLATENSIS

Бородина, А. В..

Карбонатное равновесие НСО3- + ОН-↔СО32- + Н2О в среде Заррука имеет свои особенности, определяющиеся солевым составом раствора. Переход НСО3-→СО32 (нормальные условия) начинается при рН 8,3-8,4. При повышении рН до 9,8 равновесные концентрации СО32- и НСО3- соотносятся как 1:1. Дальнейшее повышение рН (≥11,3) приводит к полному переводу гидрокарбонат-ионов в карбонат-ионы. И, наоборот, в карбонатной среде с исходным рН11,3 снижение щелочности сопровождается сдвигом равновесия в сторону гидрокарбонатов. Аналогичный переход НСО3-↔СО32 наблюдается и в культуре S. рlatensis. В двух исследованных средах скорость ассимиляции углерода носила различный характер. В гидрокарбонатной среде суточное потребление элемента с течением времени уменьшалось (от 0,15...
