Botryococcus braunii is a green alga with high long chain hydrocarbon content suitable as a source of biofuel. Due to its external hydrocarbon production, mass cultivation of B. braunii can potentially reduce biofuel production energy and water requirements. However, if the aim is to mass produce biofuel, growing any…

Stigmasterol, a phytosteroid was isolated for the first time from C. lasiantha using n-hexane as a solvent. Stigmasterol was characterized on the basis of physical, chemical and spectral data (IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, 1HNMR, DEPT-45, 90 & 135, and MS) analysis as well as by comparing them to their literature data. A seque…
