In the citing paper
“A comparative assessment of the ability of microalgae to accumulate lipids without specifying information on cultivation media [13, 135] can only be indicative.”
From Nitrogen and phosphorus stress as a tool to induce lipid production in microalgae (2023) · cites this paper as [13]
In the citing paper
“Like other microorganisms, Dunaliella has high protein and low-fat contents and has been shown to increase carbohydrate content in times of nitrogen stress [48].”
In the citing paper
“This value is several times higher than the lipid content (15–25%) in the biomass of soybeans, one of the most used oil crops [1, 12, 13].”
From Nitrogen and phosphorus stress as a tool to induce lipid production in microalgae (2023) · cites this paper as [13]
In the citing paper
“For example, the yield of algae with 30% oil in dry biomass is up to 58,700 L/ha/year, which is much higher compared to oilseed rape or soybeans [26,27].”
From The Perspective of Large-Scale Production of Algae Biodiesel (2020) · cites this paper as [27]
In the citing paper
“Most of the microalgae species are favorable for biodiesel production due to high lipids contents 50–70% and may reach to 80% such as in case of the microlaga B. braunii which accumulate up to 80% of oil in it biomass [25–27].”
In the citing paper
“Microalgae have been studied extensively as a viable alternative feedstock for biofuels [10], with higher growth rates and yields than conventional plants [11].”
From A Holistic Approach to Circular Bioeconomy Through the Sustainable Utilization of Microalgal Biomass for Biofuel and Other Value-Added Products (2024) · cites this paper as [11]
In the citing paper
“The remaining biomass from oil extraction can be used for biomethane, bioethanol, biosorbents for wastewater treatment, and biofertilizer [11, 16–18].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
