Category:High lipid content microalgae
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Algal strains, diatoms, and cyanobacteria, catagorised collectively as "Microalgae", which have been found to contain proportionally high levels of lipids (over 30%). Microalgal strains with high oil, or lipid content are of great interest in the search for a sustainable feedstock for the production of biodiesel. The species listed in this category are currently being studied for their suitability as a mass-oil producing crop.
