微藻含有多种生物活性脂质,在水产饲料、生物燃料、食品和制药行业具有潜在的应用前景。虽然微藻衍生的多不饱和脂肪酸(PUFA)及其在促进人类健康中的作用已被广泛研究,但来自该资源的其他脂质类型(例如植物甾醇)的探索却很少。植物甾醇已被用作许多食品中的添加剂,例如涂抹酱、乳制品和沙拉酱。本综述重点介绍具有功能性生物活性的微藻衍生植物甾醇的最新进展及其在功能性食品和制药行业的潜在应用。它强调了除 PUFA 之外的微藻衍生脂质对于先进微藻产业发展的重要性。
Microalgae contain a variety of bioactive lipids with potential applications in aquaculture feed, biofuel, food and pharmaceutical industries. While microalgae-derived polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) and their roles in promoting human health have been extensively studied, other lipid types from this resource, such as phytosterols, have been poorly explored. Phytosterols have been used as additives in many food products such as spread, dairy products and salad dressing. This review focuses on the recent advances in microalgae-derived phytosterols with functional bioactivities and their potential applications in functional food and pharmaceutical industries. It highlights the importance of microalgae-derived lipids other than PUFA for the development of an advanced microalgae industry.
