Biodiesel Production from Oleaginous Fungi

Abstract: Biodiesel involves the mixture of fatty acyl methyl/ethyl esters, produced from transesterification neutral lipids and if the origin of the source is from oleaginous micro organisms, then it is termed as micro diesel. In the present work, aiming to exploit fungi for biodiesel production, 12 fungal isolates were screened for lipid content by Sudan Black B staining method. Among 12 isolates, lipid rich five species viz, Mortierella alpina , M.ramanianna, M.vinancea, M.hyalina and M.verticella have been taken for… Show more

“…Growth of yeasts at 25 °C was observed previously in MI‐agar plates in order to design a bioprocess of lipid accumulation at this temperature. MI (C/N = 40) and MII (C/N = 110) were selected from literature for similar studies with oleaginous yeasts .…”

“…Based on morphological characteristics and FAME-GC analysis it was identified as Zygosaccharomyces rouxii. Ravikumar et al (2012) worked on biodiesel production from oleaginous fungi which involves the mixture of fatty acyl methyl/ethyl esters, produced from transesterification of neutral lipids. In similar way, Mrinal et al (2011) has studied the comparative lipid profiling of endophytic fungi by FAME analysis techniques.…”

“…Ils sont capables d'accumuler des triacylglycérols, riche en acides gras polyinsaturés ou ayant une structure spécifique. L'acide oléique (18:1) et linoléique (18:2) ainsi que l'acide palmitique (16:0) ou palmitoléique (C16: 1) sont le plus souvent les acides gras majoritaires retrouvés dans ce type de micro-organismes (Ravikumar et al, 2012). Il existe également plusieurs espèces de champignons capables de stocker de forts taux de lipides ; par exemple le champignon filamenteux Mortierella alliacea accumule principalement de l'acide arachidonique sous forme de triglycérides dans son mycélium (Rossi et al, 2011).…”
