Qatar Culture Collection of Microalgae: A Sustainable Source for Biodiesel Production and Omega Fatty Acid Compounds by Bounnit, Touria

“…The good growth rate of these strains along with their lipid content and profile make them competitive for a viable algal biofuel technology comparing to the terrestrial oil crops which need longer time to grow and present lower amount of lipids (Weyer et al., 2010). In addition, we observed the presence of the omega-3 and 9 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs), such as eicosapentaenoic (EPA, 20:5 n-3), docosahexaenoic (DHA, 22:6 n-3) and Nervonic Acid (C24:1 n-9) acids, which have a high commercial value and are known for their beneficial effects on human health…”
