This project investigates the cultivation of diatoms, a type of microalgae, using mixotrophic methods to enhance their growth and biomass production. By optimizing conditions for the bloom-forming diatom Skeletonema marinoi, the research aims to improve the economic viability of using these organisms for renewable biom…
Diatoms are unicellular eukaryotic algae (microalgae) and one of the most common and diverse type of marine phytoplankton.
Thanks to a flexible cell metabolism, they dominate in environmental conditions normally unfavorable for photosynthesis, i.e. freezing seawater, low light intensity and short photoperiod.
Moreover, diatoms are able to synthesize storage lipids (20-50% of cell dry weight) that can be used for production of renewable biomass and high-value fatty acids.
However, the success of…
