Recycling spent animal cell culture media using the thermally resistant microalga Chlorella sorokiniana

Abstract

C. sorokiniana is a microalgal species that can grow in animal cell culture media at 37 °C.

C. sorokiniana can rapidly eliminate all ammonia from spent animal cell culture media.

C. sorokiniana does not depend on light to grow in animal cell culture media.

Animal cells exhibit better metabolic activity when cultured in algal-treated spent media.
