Maršálková, B.; Širmerová, M.; Kuřec, M.; Brányik, T.; Brányiková, Irena; Melzoch, K.; Zachleder, Vilém
2010 - English
The aim of this work was to optimize the enzymatic hydrolysis of starch originating from microalgae (34.0 +/- 1.2% wt. starch in the dry algal biomass) grown on flue gas from waste incineration plant and to study the influence cell disintegration method on the yield of hydrolysis. Apart from the starch, the possibility of cellulose usage from microalgae cell wall as a further source of fermentable sugars was studied and preliminary results are presented.

Comparison of in vitro tests for measurement of estrogenity of chlorinated compounds and their use in the evaluation of biodegradation of chlorbenzoates by the fungus Panus tigrinus
Svobodová, Kateřina; Covino, S.; Křesinová, Zdena; Cajthaml, Tomáš
2009 - English
Recently, contamination of the environment by endocrine disruptive compounds, toxicity of these chemicals and their biodegradability are widely studied. This work is focused on estrogenity of chlorinated phenols and chlorbenzoic acids that represent potential degradation products of PCB compounds. Two different yeast bioassays for evaluation of estrogenity based on recombinated strains of Saccharomyces cerevisie were compared in this work. Estrogenic activity of chlorbenzoic acids varied with the chemical structure of chemicals. A mixture of chlorbenzoates (initial concentration 10 ppm) was degraded by a ligninolytic fungus Panus tigrinus in liquid cultures. Chemicals resulting from degradation were tested for their estrogenity, however, results indicated that the test responses were inhibited probably by some compounds present in the fungal culture liquid Keywords: yeast assay; biodegradation; chlorbenzoates Available at various institutes of the ASCR

Microalgae as a feedstock for production of bioethanol
Doucha, Jiří; Lívanský, Karel; Doušková, Irena; Zachleder, Vilém
2008 - English
Many countries are actively developing biofuels program. Leading in this field is Brazil whose present need of gasoline is supplied with 30 % by ethanol produced relatively cheaply from sugarcane. In developed countries bioethanol (3-5 % of present gasoline need) is produced mostly from corn (USA) or wheat (EU). However, ethanol production from cereals is expensive. Promising feedstock are microalgae. Some of them can surpass yields of classical crop 10-15 times. Technology of growth of unicellular Chlorella in very thin layer on inclined areas is compared with the technology of world-wide mode of cultivation in open ponds. It was found, that due to higher yields and lower energy needs, the cost of biomass production in thin-layer bioractores is only 20 % compared with ponds Mnoho zemí aktivně vyvíjí program produkce biopaliv. Vedoucí postavení má v tomto směru Brazílie, kde současnou spotřebu benzínu ze 30 % pokrývá etanol vyráběný relativně levně z cukrové třtiny. Ve vyspělých zemích se bioetanol (3-5 % současné spotřeby benzínu) vyrábí především z kukuřice (USA) nebo z pšenice (EU). Nicméně produkce etanolu z obilnin je drahá. Slibnou surovinu představují mikroskopické řasy. Některé mohou překročit výtěžky zemědělských plodin 10–15 krát. Technologie růstu jednobuněčných řas v tenké vrstvě na nakloněných rovinách je porovnána se světově rozšířeným způsobem kultivace v otevřených bazénech. Bylo zjištěno, že díky vyšším výtěžkům a nižší spotřebě energie, jsou náklady na výrobu biomasy v tenkovrstvých reaktorech pouze 20 % v porovnání s otevřenými bazény Keywords: biomass; microalgae; bioethanol Available at various institutes of the ASCR

2008 - English
Three mutant strains of the green alga Scenedesmus quadricauda were selected to be specifically resistant to the presence of high concentration of inofganic Se. The growth curves at the presence of various concentrations of selenite, selenate or misture of both compounds were monitored.
