| Abstract: | The effect of environmental factors on cell-lipid content, on the growth rate and on the overall productivity of Nannochloropsis salina was tested in the laboratory and in outdoor cultures. Under optimum conditions in the laboratory, the maximum growth rate (μmax) was 0·030 h?1, which corresponds to a doubling time of 23 h. Cellular lipid content was affected by the phase of growth and the temperature, but not by nitrogen starvation, pH or the source of sea water. The most important factor affecting the output rate of biomass was the cell concentration. The maximum biomass productivity obtained in outdoor ponds was 24·5 g·m?2·day?1, and the lipid production rate was 4·0 g m?2·day?1. |
