• Pyrolysis GC-MS as a novel analysis technique to determine the biochemical composition of microalgae (2014, background): “The majority of lipids in microalgae are typically present as triglycerides and some free fatty acids stored in the cell chloroplasts, but fatty acids are also present as membrane lipids such as glycolipids and phospholipids [16].”
• Microalgae flocculation: Impact of flocculant type, algae species and cell concentration (2014, background): “For example, the heterotrophic strain Schizochytrium limacinum can accumulate up to 50% of its biomass as lipids and because of its high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids, it may be used as a feedstock for producing food supplements or biofuel [5].”
