The current consumers' demand for food naturalness is urging the search for new functional
foods of natural origin with enhanced health-promoting properties. In this sense, algae …

Background Photosynthetic euglenids are major contributors to fresh water ecosystems.
Euglena gracilis in particular has noted metabolic flexibility, reflected by an ability to thrive in …

Background Euglena gracilis, a photosynthetic protist, produces protein, unsaturated fatty
acids, wax esters, and a unique β-1, 3-glucan called paramylon, along with other valuable …

Abstract Paramylon (β-1, 3-glucan) extracted from the microalga Euglena gracilis has a
range of applications. However, the industrial production of E. gracilis biomass and …

Background Microalgae can absorb CO2 during photosynthesis, which causes the aquatic
environmental pH to rise. However, the pH is reduced when microalga Euglena gracilis (EG) …

In order to improve CO 2 biofixation efficiency of microalgae cultivated with coal-chemical
flue gas, CO 2 gradient domestication was employed to improve high-concentration CO 2 …

Paramylon is a valuable intracellular product of the microalgae Euglena gracilis, and it can
accumulate in Euglena cells according to the cultivation conditions. For the sustainable …

Microalgae are a diverse group of microorganisms that are an interesting alternative feed
resource for ruminant production. Microalgae species with high protein concentration and …

Euglena gracilis is a single-celled, free-living flagellate that grows in a variety of cultivation
conditions. In this study, we investigated the effects of calcium acetate, glucose, glutathione …

Euglena gracilis is a promising microalga containing valuable intracellular components such
as paramylon with notable immune-functionality. For economic paramylon production …
