Full TextAbstract
Microalgae have an extraordinary potential for rapid growth, synthesis and accumulation of lipids, proteins and carbohydrates. In this study, simultaneous assay for extraction of algal biochemicals was investigated. The effect of biomass drying methods on extraction yield was reported. For cell disruption two drying methods, oven drying and freeze drying followed by solvent extraction were adopted. Cell disruption acilitate the extraction process. Freeze drying proved to be better than oven drying for biochemicals extraction. Freeze drying improved extraction yield 68%, 66% and 30% for lipid, carbohydrate, and protein extractions; respectively. This result is a step forward towards obtaining value-added products from algal feedstock.
