Biomass, oil and fatty acids profiling of mangrove-isolated microalgae under selected cultivation conditions

Microalgae have been recognized for their substantial amount of oil content along with high long-chain marketable polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) such as omega-3 and-6 fatty acids. However, indigenous microalgae in Malaysia are mostly untapped resources for lipid assessment due to lack of resear...
