Combined effects of pH (i.e., 7.5, 8.5, and 9.5) and bicarbonate (i.e., 0, 80 and 160mM NaHCO3) on lipid accumulation and on biological contaminant viability in a protozoa-contaminated culture of the freshwater microalga Neochloris oleoabundans were studied. Cultures grown in the media containing 160mM NaHCO3 at pH 9.5 obtained the highest biomass concentration (DCWmax=1.32g/L), lipid content (LC=327mg/g), which corresponded to a lipid productivity of 56mg/(L·d), and the culture was protozoa free one day after inoculation. Other cultures, 160mM NaHCO3 at pH 8.5 (DCWmax=1.32g/L, LC=223mg/g), and 80mM NaHCO3 at pH 9.5 (DCWmax=1.25g/L, LC=264mg/g) could delay protozoan growth, but not inhibit it completely. These results suggest 160mM NaHCO3 or slightly above at pH levels of 8.5-9.5 may be used in outdoor cultivation processes of freshwater N. oleoabundans to control protozoa contamination while maintain a high lipid content.
研究了 pH 值(分别为 7.5、8.5 和 9.5)和碳酸氢盐(分别为 0、80 和 160mM NaHCO3)对淡水微藻 Neochloris oleoabundans 污染培养物中脂质积累和生物污染物生存能力的综合影响。在 pH 值为 9.5 且含有 160mM NaHCO3 的培养基中生长的培养物获得了最高的生物量浓度(DCWmax=1.32g/L)、脂质含量(LC=327mg/g),对应的脂质生产力为 56mg/(L·d),并且在接种后一天培养物中没有原生动物。其他培养物,如在 pH 值为 8.5 且含有 160mM NaHCO3(DCWmax=1.32g/L,LC=223mg/g)和在 pH 值为 9.5 且含有 80mM NaHCO3(DCWmax=1.25g/L,LC=264mg/g)的条件下,可以延迟原生动物的生长,但不能完全抑制。这些结果表明,在 8.5-9.5 的 pH 值下,使用 160mM NaHCO3 或略高于该浓度,可能用于淡水 N. oleoabundans 的户外培养过程中,在控制原生动物污染的同时保持高脂质含量。
