Polar lipidomic profile shows Chlorococcum amblystomatis as a promising source of value-added lipids

Abstract There is a growing trend to explore microalgae as an alternative resource for the food, feed, pharmaceutical, cosmetic and fuel industry. Moreover, the polar lipidome of microalgae is interesting because of the reports of bioactive polar lipids which could foster new applications for microa...
