| Abstract | Efforts to increase the productivity of microalgal cultures have been focused on the improvement of photobioreactors, but little attention has been paid to the nutritional requirements of microalgae in order to improve culture media formulation. In this study, the main goal was obtaining a high productivity for Tetraselmis suecica (Chlorophyta) in semicontinuous culture by adding magnesium (Mg), silicon (Si), and strontium (Sr) at concentrations from 0.01 to 10 mM; at the time, the effect on steady-state cell density, biochemical composition, and antioxidant activity of T. suecica was evaluated. Because productivity is higher in high-density cultures, the work was focused many times to cell density. Mg (3 mM) and Sr (0.1 mM) added separately reached the highest steady-state cell density (7.0 × 10$^{6}$ ± 0.4 cells mL$^{−1}$) in comparison to control (4.2 ± 0.1 cells mL$^{−1}$), but simultaneous addition had a synergic effect, achieving 8.7 × 10$^{6}$ ± 0.6 cells mL$^{−1}$. Silicon (3 mM) significantly affected the steady-state cell density, reaching 6.0 ± 0.3 cells mL$^{−1}$ and increased the cell ash-free dry weight, reaching 127 ± 7.9 pg cell$^{−1}$ in comparison to control (102.7 ± 5.0 pg cell$^{−1}$), resulting in an ash-free dry weight productivity of 0.75 ± 0.07 g L$^{−1}$ day$^{−1}$. The highest fatty acids content and antioxidant activity, measured by 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method were obtained with Sr 10 mM. Sr treatments showed a high correlation (R $^{2}$ = 0.98) between DPPH inhibition and polyphenolic content, explaining its high antioxidant activity. Therefore, the addition of Mg, Si, and Sr to culture medium of T. suecica is recommended to achieve high steady-state cell density in semicontinuous cultures. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
