Abstract

Tetraselmis striata CTP4 is a euryhaline, robust, fast-growing microalga suitable for wastewater treatment and industrial production. Lipid production was induced through a two-stage cultivation strategy: a 1st stage under standard growth-promoting conditions (100 μmol photons m−2 s−1, salinity 36 ppt and 20 °C) to achieve high biomass concentration and a 2nd stage of 6 days for lipid induction by the application of abiotic stresses such as nutrient depletion, high light intensity (200 and 400 μmol photons m−2 s−1), high salinity (75 and 100 ppt), and extreme temperatures (5 and 35 °C). Although nutrient depletion always resulted in a decrease in biomass productivity, it had also the highest impact on lipid induction. The highest lipid content (43.2%) and lipid productivity (29.2 mg L−1 d−1) were obtained using a combination of nutrient depletion and high light intensity (400 μmol m−2 s−1). The fatty acid profile was mainly composed of C16:0 (palmitic), C18:1 (oleic) and C18:2 (linoleic) acids. The low content of unsaturated fatty acids and absence of C18:3 (linolenic) acid render the oil of this microalga suitable for biodiesel production, a renewable source of energy.
