| Popis | Microalgae accumulate bioavailable selenium-containing amino acids (Se-AAs), and these are useful as a food supplement. While this accumulation has been studied in phototrophic algal cultures, little data exists for heterotrophic cultures. We have determined the Se-AAs content, selenium/sulfur (Se/S) substitution rates, and overall Se accumulation balance in photo-and heterotrophic Chlorella cultures. Laboratory trials revealed that heterotrophic cultures tolerate Se doses, similar to 8-fold higher compared to phototrophic cultures, resulting in a similar to 2-3-fold higher Se-AAs content. In large-scale experiments, both cultivation regimes provided comparable Se-AAs content. Outdoor phototrophic cultures accumulated up to 400 mu g g(-1) of total Se-AAs and exhibited a high level of Se/S substitution (5-10%) with 30-60% organic/total Se embedded in the biomass. A slightly higher content of Se-AAs and ratio of Se/S substitution was obtained for a heterotrophic culture in pilot-scale fermentors. The data presented here shows that heterotrophic Chlorella cultures provide an alternative for Se-enriched biomass production and provides information on Se-AAs content and speciation in different cultivation regimes. |
