Analyses Of Cyclotella: The Abilities Of Marine Diatom Cyclotella: Study Microalgae

Cyclotella is a genus of diatoms often found in oligotrophic environments, both marine, and fresh water. It is in the family Stephanodiscaceae and the order Thalassiosirales.

The emerging biotechnology revolution, which applies technology to biological systems, could solve these problems without further deleterious effects if driven by sustainable development. Research and development institutes, subsidized by governments, are looking for renewable and sustainable energy resources that would replace polluting fossil fuels nearly depleted. Recently the investigation of the marine microalgae's potential in biotechnological applications is increasing by the realization that the ocean is a relatively untapped source of energy biomass and novel biomolecules. Microalgae mainly represent the last generation suitable feedstock for the transport sector, but due to their biochemical versatility are useful also for many other industrial fields such as medical, pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic.
