Abstract
An alternative stress inducing method, a Low-Energy Pulsed Electric Field (LE-PEF) was used to improve the lipid productivity of microalgae cultures. A large shift in the Nile-Red stained peaks towards a higher intensity in fluorescentactivated cell sorting, suggestive of an increased neutral lipid content was observed when 10 kV LE-PEF pulses were applied to 800 mL batch cultures of Scenedesmus dimorphus. The optimal LE-PEF on-off cycle treatment for S. dimorphus was 10 s on and 60 s off for 15 min with 6 cycles per day. Under these optimal LE-PEF treatment conditions, S. dimorphus showed an overall 25.6% increase in lipid productivity. Therefore, based on these results LE-PEF can be regarded as a promising tool to avoid the lipid content-growth rate tradeoff and improve the lipid productivity of microalgae in various cultivation systems.
