Identification of Algal Strains by PCR Amplification and Evaluation of Their Fatty Acid Profiles for Biodiesel Production

Four microalgae, obtained from different brackish and fresh water sources within the state of Louisianas Southeast region, were evaluated for their potential use in the production of biodiesel. The microorganisms were isolated and identified using genomic DNA, and 16S rRNA or 18S rRNA gene amplifica...
