Odontella aurita

Certain strains of microalgae known as diatoms were shown, under appropriate conditions, to produce up to 60% of their cellular mass as lipids under certain growth conditions. Acetyl-Co-A carboxylase catalyses the first committed step in the synthesis of fatty acids, i.e., carboxylation of acetyl-CoA to malonyl-CoA. In present study we have isolated the two species of marine diatoms Odontella aurita and Chaetoceros muelleri from Vellar estuary Parangipettai Southest coast of India and studied the acetyl co-A carboxylase activity at different Si treatment nutrient medium.

The marine diatom based biodiesel may be the greatest possible options for future energy, particularly for India where land resources and freshwater are limited. In the above context, an attempt has been made to isolate the marine diatom Odontella aurita from Vellar estuary, South east coast of India and characterized for biodiesel production. Identification of microscopic structure, morphology was succeeding by bright field microscope and SEM.
