Biotechnological conversions of crude glycerol, residue deriving from biodiesel production facilities, by strains of the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica

(Corresponding) Papanikolaou S., Diamantopoulou P., Sarris D., Aggelis G.

Topic:

Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy

Aim of the present study was to assess the ability of four Yarrowia lipolytica strains (ACA-DC 50109, LFMB Y-20, ATCC 20460 and LMBF Y-45) to grow on biodiesel-derived crude glycerol, the principal residue-stream deriving from biodiesel manufacture. Initial trials were carried out in shake-flasks...Read more

Lipid production by Rhodosporidium toruloides growing on media presenting composition similarities with the spent sulfite liquor in batch and fed-batch cultures

Michou S., Vastarouchaa E., Sarris D., Kalantzi O., (Corresponding) Papanikolaou S.

Topic:

Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy

Aim of this study is to explore the effect of sodium lignosulfonate (SL), a paper industry by-product, on cell growth and lipid production by the yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides, cultivated on xylose-based media, that mimic the principal waste-stream originated from paper production facilities (viz...Read more

Biotechnological production of polyols through conversions of crude glycerol by newly isolated strains of the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica

Vastaroucha E., Michou S., Kalantzi O., (Corresponding) Papanikolaou S.

Topic:

Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy

The purpose of this study is to investigate the ability of newly isolated Yarrowia lipolytica strains to grow on crude glycerol, the main by-product of the industrial production of biodiesel. In particular, the ability of the yeasts to metabolize glycerol and produce dry cell weight (DCW) and...Read more
