Mixotrophy, a more promising culture mode: Multi-faceted elaboration of carbon and energy metabolism mechanisms to optimize microalgae culture. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2023; 386:129512. [PMID: 37481043 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2023.129512] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2023] [Revised: 07/15/2023] [Accepted: 07/16/2023] [Indexed: 07/24/2023]
Abstract
Some mixotrophic microalgae appear to exceed the sum of photoautotrophy and heterotrophy in terms of biomass production. This paper mainly reviews the carbon and energy metabolism of microalgae to reveal the synergistic mechanisms of the mixotrophic mode from multiple aspects. It explains the shortcomings of photoautotrophic and heterotrophic growth, highlighting that the mixotrophic mode is not simply the sum of photoautotrophy and heterotrophy. Specifically, microalgae in mixotrophic mode can be divided into separate parts of photoautotrophic and heterotrophic cultures, and the synergistic parts of photoautotrophic culture enhance aerobic respiration and heterotrophic culture enhance the Calvin cycle. Additionally, this review argues that current deficiencies in mixotrophic culture can be improved by uncovering the synergistic mechanism of the mixotrophic mode, aiming to increase biomass growth and improve quality. This approach will enable the full utilization of advantagesin various fields, and provide research directions for future microalgal culture.

Abstract
Algae and microalgae are used as a source of different biomolecules, such as lipids and carbohydrates. Among carbohydrates, polysaccharides, such as β-glucans, are important for their application as antioxidants, antisepsis, and immunomodulators. In the present work, the β-glucans production potential of Microchloropsis salina was assessed using two different culture conditions: a high-density batch and a modeled high-density fed-batch. From the biochemical parameters determined from these two cultures conditions, it was possible to establish that the modeled high-density fed-batch culture improves the biomass growth. It was possible to obtain a biomass productivity equal to 8.00 × 10-2 ± 2.00 × 10-3 g/(L × day), while the batch condition reached 5.13 × 10-2 ± 4.00 × 10-4 g/(L × day). The same phenomenon was observed when analyzing the β-glucans accumulation, reaching volumetric productivity equal to 5.96 × 10-3 ± 2.00 × 10-4 g of product/(L × day) against the 4.10 × 10-3 ± 2.00 × 10-4 g of product/(L × day) obtained in batch conditions. These data establish a baseline condition to optimize and significantly increase β-glucan productivity, as well as biomass, adding a new and productive source of this polymer, and integrating its use in potential applications in the human and animal nutraceutical industry.

Abstract
Malus sieversii grows on the slopes of the Tianshan Mountains in Xinjiang where the difference in daily temperature is significant. In recent years, the rhizosphere soil health of Malus sieversii has been severely impacted by anthropogenic disturbance and pathogenic infestation. The soil nutrient content and soil microorganism diversity are the main components of soil health. Low temperature has negative effects on soil bacterial community structure by inhibiting the accumulation of carbon and nitrogen. However, the effects of temperature and nitrogen application on soil carbon and nitrogen accumulation and the bacterial community composition in the rhizosphere soil of Malus sieversii are unclear. We set two temperature levels, i.e., low temperature (L) and room temperature (R), combined with no nitrogen (N0) and nitrogen application (N1) to explore the response of plant carbon and nitrogen uptake, rhizosphere soil carbon and nitrogen accumulation and bacterial community composition to temperature and nitrogen fertilization. At the same temperature level, plant 13C abundance (P-Atom13C), plant 15N absolute abundance (P-Con15N), soil 15N abundance (S-Atom15N) and soil urease, protease and glutaminase activities were significantly higher under nitrogen application compared with the no-nitrogen application treatment. The bacterial community diversity and richness indices of the apple rhizosphere soil in the N1 treatment were higher than those in the N0 treatment. The relative abundances of Actinobacteria, Rhodopseudomonas, and Bradyrhizobium were higher in the LN1 treatment than in the LN0 treatment. Redundancy analysis (RDA) showed that plant 13C absolute abundance (P-Con13C) and plant 15N absolute abundance (P-Con15N) were the main factors affecting the soil bacterial community composition. In summary, Nitrogen application can alleviate the effects of low temperature stress on the soil bacterial community and is of benefit for the uptakes of carbon and nitrogen in Malus sieversii plants.

Abstract
Microalgae are natural, green raw material and could be used for the development of edible oil for its abundant polyunsaturated fatty acids, with fast growth rate. The wet mud and dry powder of Scenedesmus dimorphus were applied to compare the extraction effects of different organic solvent systems in this study. The results displayed that, by using the ethanol/n-hexane (3:2, v/v) mixed solvent, the oil extraction rate from wet algal mud was 68.31 %, with 71.65 % of neutral lipid, and 1.87 % of vitamin E; the retention rates of protein, chlorophyll, and carbohydrates in the algal residue after oil extraction were 60.56 %, 53.27 %, and 80.20 %, respectively. Through the single solvent n-hexane, the oil extraction rate from dried algal powder was 71.52 %, with 75.86 % of neutral lipids, and 1.63 % of vitamin E. The retention rates of protein, chlorophyll, and carbohydrate were 55.92 %, 61.33 % and 78.35 %, respectively, suggesting the high rate of nutrient retention. In addition, the orthogonal experiments indicated that the compound of low concentration natural antioxidants with 0.010 % of tea polyphenols, 0.005 % of vitamin E, and 0.015 % of rosemary extract had the best effects on improvement of oxidative stability.

Abstract
Central carbon metabolism describes the integration of transport pathway of main carbon sources inside the cell. Nitrogen (N) limitation is a favorable approach to stimulate ganoderic triterpenoid (GT) accumulation in Ganoderma lucidum. In this study, the dynamic regulation of metabolism reassignment towards GT biosynthesis responsive to N limitation was investigated by iTRAQ-based proteome. Physiological data suggested that N limitation slightly affected cell growth but significantly enhanced GT contents in the initial 20 days. From day 10, the protein contents were halted by prolonged N limitation duration. Proteomics-based investigations revealed that the carbon skeletons integrated into GT precursors were regenerated by glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. Cells strategically reserved nitrogen by barely incorporating it into TCA cycle intermediates to form amino acids, and enzymes involved in protein degradation were up regulated. Furthermore, regulation of proteins in response to abiotic stress and oxidation- reduction processes played a critical role in maintaining cellular homeostasis. These findings indicated that the flux of carbon into GT following N deficiency was a consequence of the remodeling of intermediate metabolism in TCA cycle and glycolysis reactions. This study provides a rationale for genetic engineering of G. lucidum, which may enable synchronized biomass and GT synthesis.

Abstract
Process monitoring, which can be defined as the measurement of process variables with the smallest possible delay, is combined with process models to form the basis for successful process control. Minimizing the measurement delay leads inevitably to employing online, in situ sensors where possible, preferably using noninvasive measurement methods with stable, low-cost sensors. Microalgal processes have similarities to traditional bioprocesses but also have unique monitoring requirements. In general, variables to be monitored in microalgal processes can be categorized as physical, chemical, and biological, and they are measured in gaseous, liquid, and solid (biological) phases. Physical and chemical process variables can be usually monitored online using standard industrial sensors. The monitoring of biological process variables, however, relies mostly on sensors developed and validated using laboratory-scale systems or uses offline methods because of difficulties in developing suitable online sensors. Here, we review current technologies for online, in situ monitoring of all types of process parameters of microalgal cultivations, with a focus on monitoring of biological parameters. We discuss newly introduced methods for measuring biological parameters that could be possibly adapted for routine online use, should be preferably noninvasive, and are based on approaches that have been proven in other bioprocesses. New sensor types for measuring physicochemical parameters using optical methods or ion-specific field effect transistor (ISFET) sensors are also discussed. Reviewed methods with online implementation or online potential include measurement of irradiance, biomass concentration by optical density and image analysis, cell count, chlorophyll fluorescence, growth rate, lipid concentration by infrared spectrophotometry, dielectric scattering, and nuclear magnetic resonance. Future perspectives are discussed, especially in the field of image analysis using in situ microscopy, infrared spectrophotometry, and software sensor systems.
