Fine Resolution Analysis of bacterial communities associated with Neochloris oleoabundans cultures, and insights into terpenes as contamination control agents
Abstract:Biological contamination is one of the main bottlenecks in the production of microalgae, reducing quality and productivity, sometimes leading to complete loss of the cultures. This work evaluated the presence of bacterial contaminants in N. oleoabundans cultures through HTS and 16S analysis and their susceptibility to 6 natural terpenes (α-pinene, β-pinene, limonene, trans-cinnamaldehyde, linalool, and eugenol). The principal phyla identified were Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes and Actinobacteria, and based on … Show more
