TAILIEUCHUNG - Selection of oleaginous yeasts for fatty acid production

Oleaginous yeast species are an alternative for the production of lipids or triacylglycerides (TAGs). These yeasts are usually non-pathogenic and able to store TAGs ranging from 20 % to 70 % of their cell mass depending on culture conditions. | Lamers et al.

Wijffels2 3 and Christien Lokman1 Abstract Background Oleaginous yeast species are an alternative for the production of lipids or triacylglycerides TAGs . These yeasts are usually non-pathogenic and able to store TAGs ranging from 20 to 70 of their cell mass depending on culture conditions. TAGs originating from oleaginous yeasts can be used as the so-called second generation biofuels which are based on non-food competing waste carbon sources . Results In this study the selection of potentially new interesting oleaginous yeast strains is described. Important selection criteria were a broad maximum temperature and pH range for growth robustness of the strain a broad spectrum of carbon sources that can be metabolized preferably including C-5 sugars a high total fatty acid content in combination with a low glycogen content and genetic accessibility. Conclusions Based on these selection criteria among 24 screened species Schwanniomyces occidentalis Debaromyces occidentalis CBS2864 was selected as a promising strain for the production of high amounts of lipids. Keywords Oleaginous yeast Schwanniomyces occidentalis Lipid production TAG Background Mineral and vegetable oil is a crucial resource for the modern human civilization but the worldwide amount is depleting rapidly and alternatives need to be explored. An interesting alternative to decrease the dependency of western societies on these fossil and vegetable sources might be the use of oleaginous micro-organisms as described by various authors 1-3 . Lipids isolated from oleaginous micro-organisms can be used as components in coatings paints personal care products production .
