Notes:
Cells of Chlorella vulgaris, BEIJ. Greifswald 9, were grown on autotrophic and mixotrophic conditions using glucose and acetate as organic substrates. It was shown that these C-sources applicated in a suitable range of concentrations increase the growth rate and the productivity of the algal cultures. The cells grown on mixotrophic conditions have a higher total pigment content and exhibit variations in the ratio chlorophyll a/chlorophyll b.In addition the contents of proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids of the biomass were shown to be dependent on the kind of the organic substrate used.
