Abstract: | The unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii synthesizes glycerol as an osmoregulatory metabolite when exposed to high saline concentrations (200 mM NaCl). Response to osmotic stress can be used for biotechnological production of this compound. When synthesis of a substance is linked to photosynthetic capacity and consequently to effective light, the production on a large scale makes an efficient utilization of light necessary. In the present work a model for evaluation of effective light has been tested. |
