Abstract

Thirty-five strains of unicellular green algae were tested for their rate of growth with non-continuous culturing method in 10 litre sphaerical flasks, under greenhouse conditions. Strains of excellent growth rate and good technological characteristics are: 5618 Scenedesmus obtusiusculus, 953 Coelastrnm microporum, 3615 Chlorococcum botryoides, 1893 Ankistrodesmus falcatus, 512 Ankistrodesmus sp. and No 3602 undetermined strain. The other strains investigated are less suitable partly technologically (3153 Chlorocloster terrestris, 3556 Dictyosphaerium pulchellum) or their rate of growth is insufficient. On the basis of these experiments the 5618 Scenedesmus obtusiusculus strains was chosen for our experiments on the mass culturing of algae.
