  • Balanced mixotrophy method
    Patent number: 10240120
    Abstract: Methods of culturing mixotrophic microorganisms in a state of balanced gas composition are disclosed. Parameters of a culture of mixotrophic microorganisms may be controlled to reduce the requirements of externally supplied gases and optimize the production and consumption of gases within the culture by the phototrophic and heterotrophic metabolisms of the mixotrophic microorganisms.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 29, 2015
    Date of Patent: March 26, 2019
    Assignee: Heliae Development LLC
    Inventors: Eneko Ganuza Taberna, Jason D Licamele, Anna Lee Tonkovich, Michael V Bellefeuille, Cameron Wyatt, Thomas J Kulaga, Adriano Galvez, III
