Lipid production by Lipomyces starkeyi cells in glucose solution without auxiliary nutrients

Co-fermentation of cellobiose and xylose by Lipomyces starkeyi for lipid production

“…A number of oleaginous strains have been applied for lipid production (Papanikolaou and Aggelis, 2011). The oleaginous yeast, Lipomyces starkeyi, can utilize a variety of carbon sources and produces a high amount of intracellular lipids (Zhao et al, 2008;Angerbauer et al, 2008;Wild et al, 2010;Lin et al, 2011). Although L. starkeyi can use a mixture of glucose and xylose for lipid production, it consumes these two sugars sequentially due to glucose repression (Zhao et al, 2008).…”

Fatty acid ethyl esters production in aqueous phase by the oleaginous yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides

“…Lipid-rich culture was prepared according to a published procedure (Lin et al, 2011). R. toruloides Y4 cells were incubated in YPD liquid medium at 30°C, 200 rpm for 24 h, collected by centrifugation, and washed twice with sterile 0.9 wt% NaCl solution.…”

Oleaginous Yeasts form Uruguay and Antarctica as Renewable Raw Material for Biodiesel Production

“…However, the lipid production could be improved. In this regard, Lin et al [27] designed a two-stage fermentation process to obtain a lipid concentration 67.9 gl -1 from the yeast Lipomyces starkeyi. The optimization of the growing conditions for R. graminis S12R will be the next step in order to obtain the maximum lipid yield.…”
