“…The content of lipid, carbohydrate and proteins varies from species to species. Most common algae like Chlorella, Crypthecodinium, Cylindrotheca, Dunaliella, Isochrysis, Nannochloris, Nannochloropsis, Neochloris, Nitzschia, Phaeodactylum, Porphyridium, Schizochytrium, Tetraselmis, Botryococcus braunii and Scenedesmus have oil levels between 20 and 50% but higher productivities can be reached [1,[16][17][18][19][20]. Under adverse growth conditions such as nitrogen limitation, low temperature, high light intensity, high salt concentration and high iron concentration the lipid content in some of microalgae increased [21,19].…”
