METHODS OF APPLYING ACETATE TOXICITY AND INDUCING ACETATE UPTAKE IN MICROALGAE CULTURES

摘要

Methods of culturing microalgae in acetate toxicity conditions to induce the uptake of acetate, control contamination, increase the metabolic rate, increase the respiration rate, increase the accumulation of lipids, and decreasing the accumulation of protein are disclosed. Embodiments include methods of controlling the internal microalgae cell acetate concentration by manipulating the culture pH and residual acetate concentration.
