Abstract
-
Non-food-based biofuel feedstocks are in high demand
worldwide. Among the various feedstocks, microalgae are
the most promising feedstock for mitigating atmospheric
CO2 and producing biodiesel. In this study, various concentrations
of CO2, from 0.03 to 12%, were used to investigate
their effect on the cell growth, biomass and lipid production
and fatty acid composition of Dunaliella sp. in a
closed photobioreactor. The results showed that the highest
biomass and total lipids, 521 mg/L/d and 40 mg/L/d, respectively,
were produced with 5% CO2 aeration during the
logarithmic growth phase. The oleic acid (18:1n9c) and elaidic
acid (18:1n9t) contents were increased approximately
two fold. The physiological responses of Dunaliella sp. at
10% CO2 were similar to those at 5% CO2. Therefore, the
present results suggest that 5–10% is a suitable CO2 concentration
range for Dunaliella sp. growth to mitigate atmospheric
CO2 and increase biofuel production.

Abstract
-
Discovery of an alternative fuel is now an urgent matter because of the impending issue of oil depletion. Lipids synthesized in algal cells called triacylglycerols (TAGs) are thought to be of the most value as a potential biofuel source because they can use transesterification to manufacture biodiesel. Biodiesel is deemed as a good solution to overcoming the problem of oil depletion since it is capable of providing good performance similar to that of petroleum. Expression of several genomic sequences, including glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase, lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase, phosphatidic acid phosphatase, diacylglycerol acyltransferase, and phospholipid:diacylglycerol acyltransferase, can be useful for manipulating metabolic pathways for biofuel production. In this study, we found this approach indeed increased the storage lipid content of C. minutissima UTEX 2219 up to 2-fold over that of wild type. Thus, we conclude this approach can be used with the biodiesel production platform of C. minutissima UTEX 2219 for high lipid production that will, in turn, enhance productivity.

Abstract
-
A diesel-oil and n-hexadecane-degrading novel bacterial strain, designated DR1T, was isolated from a rice paddy in Deok-So, South Korea. The strain DR1T cells were Gram-negative, aerobic coccobacilli, and grew at 20-37°C with the optimal temperature of 30°C, and an optimal pH of 6-8. Interestingly, strain DR1T was highly motile (swimming and swarming motility) using its fimbriae, and generated N-acyl homoserine lactones as quorum-sensing signals. The predominant respiratory quinone as identified as ubiquinone-9 (Q-9) and DNA G+C content was 41.4 mol%. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence-based phylogenetic analysis placed the strain in a clade with the species A. calcoaceticus, A. haemolyticus, A. baumannii, A. baylyi, and A. beijerinckii, with which it evidenced sequence similarities of 98.2%, 97.4%, 97.2%, 97.1%, and 97.0%, respectively. DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain DR1T and other Acinetobacter spp. were all less than 20%. The physiological and taxonomic characteristics with the DNA-DNA hybridization data supported the identification of strain DR1T in the genus Acinetobacter as a novel species, for which the name Acinetobacter oleivorans sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DR1T (=KCTC 23045T =JCM 16667T).
