• Antiviral compounds obtained from microalgae commonly used as carotenoid sources (2012, background): “…mature red cysts have been described to possess a thick cell wall with algaenan, a complex cell wall polymer that is resistant to several chemical and enzimatic treatments, together with diverses polysaccharides as the main components (Montsant et al. 2001; Hagen et al. 2002; Damiani et al. 2006).”
• Astaxanthin-Producing Green Microalga Haematococcus pluvialis: From Single Cell to High Value Commercial Products (2016, background): “Numerous contractile vacuoles are irregularly distributed near the protoplast surface of the cell (Hagen et al., 2002).”
• Morphology, composition, production, processing and applications of Chlorella vulgaris: A review (2014, background): “vulgaris has a unilaminar cell wall that lacks sporopollenin, which is an extremely resistant polymerised carotenoid found on the cell wall of Haematococcus pluvialis [40] and Chlorella fusca [41].”
• Ultrastructure of the cyst wall of Haematococcus pluvialis (Chlorophyceae): wall development and behaviour during cyst germination (2006, background): “In cysts of German strains of H. pluvialis, gas chromatographic analyses of monosaccharides revealed mannose as the main part of wall carbohydrates (Hagen et al. 2002).”
• Proterozoic phytoplankton and timing of Chlorophyte algae origins (2011, background): “During cyst morphogenesis in modern algae, cell walls become thicker, more complex in ultrastructure and multilayered by secreting additional layers of various biochemical compounds, which strengthen the walls and make the cyst resistant (Hagen et al. 2002; Damiani et al. 2006).”
• ASTAXANTHIN ACCUMULATION IN HAEMATOCOCCUS PLUVIALIS (CHLOROPHYCEAE) AS AN ACTIVE PHOTOPROTECTIVE PROCESS UNDER HIGH IRRADIANCE 1 (2003, background): “Several environmental stress conditions have been demonstrated to induce astaxanthin accumulation, among them high irradiance, nutrient deficiency, high salinity, and high temperature (Kobayashi et al. 1992, Tjahjono et al. 1994, Harker et al. 1996, Boussiba 2000, Sarada et al. 2002).”
• Influence of microalgae cell wall characteristics on protein extractability and determination of nitrogen-to-protein conversion factors (2012, background): “The composition of its cell wall makes this microalga less permeable and extremely mechanically resistant (Hagen et al. 2002).”
