Nitrate Reductase Inhibition Induces Lipid Enhancement of Dunaliella Tertiolecta for Biodiesel Production

Figure 2

Impact of tungstate on NR activity (a) NR activity measurement in D. tertiolecta cells under different conditions: nontreated cells, heated cells (94°C), and cells treated with sodium tungstate after 15 days of culture at F/2. (b) Effect of concentration of sodium tungstate on NR activity in D. tertiolecta cells. Tested concentrations: 0, 0.5, 1. 5, 7.5, 10, and 15 mM. Statistical analysis was made using least significant difference (LSD) in SPSS.
