“…The induction of algal cell lysis by viruses [3] and bacteria [4] is a well-known phenomenon and could provide a low-cost natural method for disrupting cell structures and so controlling microalgal growth. The recent interest in large-scale growth of microalga for the production of bulk and speciality chemicals, including biofuels, provides a further interest in developing low cost lysis methods which could be adapted for use in bioprocessing [5].…”

“…Suitable environmental and cultivation conditions to speed up biomass production are crucial for developing production processes that are efficient in costs and yield (Forján et al 2015). Large scale production of microalgae is challenging due to limitations to growth under harsh outdoor conditions.…”

“…This alga was grown in mineral liquid culture medium, at pH 2.5, in 5‐L batch reactors at 25°C, bubbled with air containing 5% (v/v) CO 2 , and continuously illuminated with white fluorescent lamps (Philips TL‐D 30W/54‐765 1SL; Philips Ibérica, SAU, Madrid, Spain), which supplies 165 μE m − 2 s −1 at the surface of the reactor. Stock cultures were maintained in Petri plates and prepared with 300 mL of 1.75% (w/v) agar solution and 700 mL of modified K9 medium, which were autoclaved separately and mixed before use (Forján et al ). Chlorella sorokiniana CCAP 211/8K (Shihira & Krauss ) was obtained from the UTEX culture collection, and it was grown using the method described by Cuaresma et al ().…”

“…In this context, a number of review articles have been published that highlight microalgae as effective antimicrobial producers (Plaza et al 2010;Najdenski et al 2013;Senhorinho et al 2015). In addition, microalgae have also been referred to as natural sources of high-quality proteins for foods and valuable molecules with applications in human healthcare, such as anti-inflammatory or antitumoral activity (Borowitzka 2013;Forján et al 2015).…”
