Isolation of a novel microalgae strain Desmodesmus sp. and optimization of environmental factors for its biomass production

- A new strain of Desmodesmus sp. EJ15-2 was isolated from fresh water and identified using 18 s rRNA and ITS1 analysis.
- Temperature, light intensity and light/dark cycle were optimized as 30 °C, 98 μmol/m2/s and 14:10 (L:D).
- The highest predicted biomass production was 0.758 g/L.
