Fig. 5From: Production of eicosapentaenoic acid by application of a delta-6 desaturase with the highest ALA catalytic activity in algaeThe effect of CO2 on each alga growth and principal fatty acid profiles. DCW (a), TFA (b), the percentage of TFA (DCW %) (c), LA level (d), ALA level (e), EPA level (f) and the percentage of EPA (TFA%) (g) were determined in the control strain (WT D. salina) and transformants (including Ds-DsFADS6-9, Ds-DsFADS6-4, Ds-TpFADS6-8, and Ds-TpFADS6-10). Each alga was cultured in Ben-Amotz medium with 500 mg/L MI and 9 or 12% CO2 aerationBack to article page
