SOFAST it’s Scary!: The Digest’s 2019 Multi-Slide Guide to Arthrospira/Spirulina Algae Strains

Streamlined Optimization of Filamentous Arthrospira/SpirulinaTraits (SOFAST) is looking at algae in a whole new way. Lumen Bioscience in particular has been working on a unique, patented technology to genetically enhance Arthrospira for improved growth and biomass composition for biofuels and bioproducts.

Damian Carrieri from Lumen Bioscience gave this presentation at the DOE’s BETO Project Peer Review that looks at how they are developing strain improvements and technologies to enable algae biomass compositions with increased lipids and carbohydrates to increase biomass productivity and enhance biomass composition for production of biofuel intermediates, and more.
