Summary
Algal cells encapsulated in 1.2% calcium-alginate beads with 0.5 M sucrose were desiccated at 30 deg C and then directly immersed in liquid nitrogen. The highest cell viability after warming was obtained with Dunaliella tertiolecta when the encapsulated cells was dehydrated to 40% of the water content at an average dehydration rate of 0.9% water content/h. Using this encapsulation-deshydration technique, 6 marine microalgal, 1 freshwater green algal and 4 freshwater cyanobacterial strains were successfully recovered after storage in liquid nitrogen.
