Different light intensity and different media types were used to test their effects on algal growth and biochemical composition of cell content to optimize the growth of algal biomass production. Analysis of the results includes growth calculation of Chlorella vulgaris obtained from 6 d observations for 12 h a day (06:00 am to 06:00 pm) with 3 h breaks in between observation. Laboratory analysis was done at the end of day 5th to determine the content of N, and P. Density of C. vulgaris were influenced by both light intensity and media. Differences media type and light intensity as separated parameters and their interactions significantly (p < 0.05) affected on the growth and nitrogen and phosphor content of C. vulgaris. The highest density of  2 310 × 104 cells · mL–1 was on day 4 with walne media resulting in specific growth rate (µ) of 0.43 per day with a  light intensity of 5 000 lux, and the lowest density of 725 × 104 cells · mL–1 was in day 4 with the NPK media and specific growth rate (µ) 0.25 per day with a light intensity of 4 000 lux. The highest nitrogen and phosphorus content (16.12 mg and 28.19 mg) was obtained from walne medium with a light intensity of 5000 lux, and the lowest (3.43 mg and 2.17 mg) was obtained from NPK with a light intensity of 4 000 lux.

The effect of a freshwater bacterium Exiguobacterium sp.013 was examined on the cultures of four freshwater Microcystis which can cause cyanobacterial blooms. Four freshwater Microcystis cells and the bacterium were inoculated simultaneously, in modified BG-11 culture media, and cultured for 24 days continuously. The specific growth rate and cell densities were employed and determined in treated cultures and in controls.Additionally, dynamic changes of bacterium were investigated during the whole cultures. The results showed that the specific growth rate and maximal cell density of M. aeruginosa, M. flos-aquae and M. wesenbergii in treated cultures were significantly enhanced than that of control cultures, and daily cell densities of four Microcystis in the treated cultures were also significantly higher compared with that of control cultures. The added bacterial strain always kept dominance among the bacterial flora during the culture period. These findings implied that bacteria Exiguobacterium sp. might play a positive promoting role in forming Microcystis blooms under the eutrophication condition.

In addition to chemical factors, physical conditions also play a key role in the growth of microalgae. In this study, solid sediment in rivers was simulated by pure quartz sand with different particle sizes and the physical effects of disturbance rate, solid–liquid ratio and particle size on the growth of Chlorella vulgaris (C. vulgaris) were investigated through orthogonal analysis and response surface methodology (RSM) during co-cultivation of C. vulgaris and sediment. The result of ANOVA in orthogonal analysis showed that the effect ability of a single factor on biomass can be ranked as disturbance rate > particle size > solid–liquid ratio, 100 r/min disturbance rate and 30–40 M particle size are the most significant at the 0.05 level. Furthermore, the specific growth rate can reach 0.25/d and 0.27/d, respectively. With the growth of C. vulgaris, the pH of the solution reached a maximum of 10.7 in a week. The results from the RSM showed that strong interactions are reflected in the combinations of disturbance rate and solid–liquid ratio, and disturbance rate and particle size. Ramp desirability of the biomass indicates that the optimum levels of the three variables are 105 r/min disturbance rate, 0.117 g/mL solid–liquid ratio and 30–40 M particle size. In this case, the biomass can grow seven times in a week with 0.27/d specific growth rate and a pH value of 7–10.4. This study shows that the growth of C. vulgaris can be regulated by changing physical conditions simultaneously, and the optimization of physical conditions can be applied to biomass production, algae prediction and acid water treatment in rivers, lakes and reservoirs.

Effective nutrient medium is the key factor that significantly influences the specific growth rate and the final concentration of microalgae. The main objective of this study was to optimize the microalgal growth in mass culture system under the effect of soil extract in modified Bolds Basal medium. Chlorella vulgaris was grown aseptically for 10 days at five different concentrations of soil extract (10, 20, 30, 40, 50ml/L) at 25°C cultivation temperature. After 10 days of cultivation, Chlorella vulgaris showed maximum cell concentration of 5x107/ml at 30ml/L of soil extract concentration which corresponds to the maximum specific growth rate 1.56μd-1 with the doubling rate of 2.25d-1   andlipid yield of 22.74 % of dry weight.________________________________________GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT

The work focuses on dynamics modeling of nitrogen compounds in microalgae cells under chemostat conditions. The analysis of classical models (Michaelis-Menten, Monod, Droop), which describe the kinetics of substrate-dependent growth of microalgae, was carried out. Classical models are shown to be applicable provided that the physicochemical parameters of the medium such as temperature, cell irradiation, etc are constant. As an alternative approach, the possibility of using linear splines in kinetics modeling of nitrate absorption by microalgae is shown. For the conditions of the chemostat, particular solutions for the generalized model of the dynamics of nitrogen compounds in the cells of microalgae considered in the first part of the work were obtained, and boundary conditions for the culture growth at unlimited nitrogen were determined. For limited growth, the equation for both the dependence of the specific growth rate on the intracellular nitrogen content, which coincides in form with the Droop model and the dependence of the specific growth rate on the extracellular concentration of nitrogen, which coincides in form with the Monod model were obtained. The species-specific coefficients of the equations such as the maximum specific rate of nitrogen absorption, the maximum specific rate of synthesis of structural components, the maximum content of reserve forms of nitrogen, the minimum share of structural forms of nitrogen in the total cell content were determined.

Abstract. Susanty D, Oksari AA. 2020. Growth and secondary metabolites content of chloroform extract of Chlorella sp. and Chlorella sorokiniana cultured on chicken broiler waste media. Nusantara Bioscience 12: 28-32. Intensive chicken broiler farms create waste in the environment. Chicken Broiler Waste (CBW) was used as culture media for Chlorella sp. InaCC M39 and Chlorella sorokiniana InaCC M38 at various concentrations (2, 4, 6, 8, and 10%), and compared to AF6 media. The growth of Chlorella was observed every 48 hours for 10 days by counting the number of cells using a hemocytometer. The chloroform extract of Chlorella sp. and C. sorokiniana were analyzed for their phytochemical content to determine the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, saponin, steroids, and tannin. The results showed that 2% of CBW media was the best medium for the growth of Chlorella with nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) content was 0.01% N; 0.01% P; 0.06% K respectively. The highest specific growth rate of Chlorella sp. on 2% CBW medium was on the 8th day of culture (0.8133) with cell density of 1.6 x 106 cells/mL, while the highest specific growth rate of Chlorella sorokiniana was on the 6th day (0.8907) with cell density of 2.99 x 107 cells/mL. The chloroform extract of the biomass of Chlorella sorokiniana contained steroid and saponin
