Raw Glycerol Based Medium for DHA and Lipids Production, Using the Marine Heterotrophic Microalga <i>Crypthecodinium cohnii</i>

Crude glycerol, a biodiesel industry byproduct, and corn steep liquor (CSL) derived from a starch industry, were used as carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively, for lipid production, using the heterotrophic microalga <i>C. cohnii</i> grown in a bench bioreactor, in a batch culture. Th...
