“…gracilis is a unicellular green microalga with flagellar motility (Buetow, 1968). The presence of nutritionally crucial chemicals such as fatty acids, docosahexaenoic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid, and vitamins in E. gracilis implies that this alga is a valuable therapeutic resource with potential for clinical application (Kottuparambil et al, 2019;Nakashima et al, 2021). The paramylon yield from E. gracilis is approximately 60%-70% of the dried cells, and paramylon exhibits antiinflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, anticancer, and neuroprotective properties, as well as immune activating effects (Sakagami et al, 1991;Foltínová et al, 1994;Sugiyama et al, 2009;Russo et al, 2016;Nakashima et al, 2017;Suzuki et al, 2018;Guo et al, 2019).…”
