Abstract

The growth of, and the production of neutral lipids, carbohydrates and proteins by, the alga Botryococcus sudeticus in batch culture is described. The algal mass contains, during the stationary phase of growth, about 4.5% protein, 7.5% carbohydrate and 22.0% neutral lipid on a dry weight basis. Some physiological characteristics of this species are discussed.
