Isolation and purification of lutein from the microalga Chlorella vulgaris by extraction after saponification.

A simple and efficient method for the isolation and purification of lutein from the microalga Chlorella vulgaris was developed. Crude lutein was obtained by extraction with dichloromethane from the microalga after saponification. Partition values of lutein in the two-phase system of ethanol-water-dichloromethane at different ratios were measured by HPLC so as to assist the determination of an appropriate condition for washing water-soluble impurities in the crude lutein. Partition values of lutein in another two-phase system of ethanol-water-hexane at different ratios were also measured by HPLC for determining the condition for removing fat-soluble impurities. The water-soluble impurities in the crude lutein were removed by washing with 30% aqueous ethanol, and the fat-soluble impurities were removed by extraction with hexane. The final purity of lutein obtained was 90-98%, and the yield was 85-91%.

Toxicity of 40 herbicides to the green alga Chlorella vulgaris.

The effects on the green alga Chlorella vulgaris of 40 herbicides in 19 different chemical structure classes and with 11 dissimilar modes of action were studied through 96-h acute toxicity tests. Experimental results indicated that the average acute toxicity of acetolactate synthase (ALS)-inhibiting herbicides to C. vulgaris was close to those of the acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase)-inhibiting herbicides and the lipid synthesis-inhibiting protoporphyrinogen oxidase (Protox) inhibitor. Their acute toxicities were higher than those of the microtubule process inhibitor, mitotic process inhibitor, the glutamine synthase inhibitors, and 5-enolpyruvyl-shikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSP synthase) inhibitors. The acute toxicities of auxin herbicides to C. vulgaris were the lowest among all herbicides tested and that of the photosynthesis-inhibiting herbicides was the highest.
