  • Sterol assimilation by Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Creator:
    Lewis, Thomas A.
    Abstract:
    Sterols of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae are found in membranes with a free C-3,β hydroxyl group or stored in lipid droplets as esters of long-chain fatty acids. We have examined the distribution of cholesterol into free sterol and steryl ester pools of a sterol auxotrophic strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Varying...

  • Development of artificial diets for delivery of water-soluble nutrients to altricial fish larvae

    Creator:
    Onal, Umur
    Abstract:
    In the present study, the potential of low-melting point lipids, namely methyl palmitate (MP) and menhaden stearine (MS), were studied for delivery of water-soluble materials to fish larvae. Addition of the solid emulsifier, sorbitan monopalmitate (SMP) resulted in higher RE compared to the liquid emulsifier sorbitan sesquioleate (SSO). Additions of...

  • Two-stage photobioreactor cultivation for enhancing lipid production from diatom cells by controlled silicon limitation

    Creator:
    Rosenberger, Jennifer L.
    Abstract:
    There is significant interest in utilizing microalgae as a source for biofuels. Diatoms are a class of single-celled microalgae which make silica cell walls and require dissolved silicon as a substrate for cell division. Manipulation of soluble silicon delivery to the culture offers a route to control cell cycle and...
