Application of ¹H HR-MAS NMR-Based Metabolite Fingerprinting of Marine Microalgae.

ABSTRACT: Natural products from the marine environment as well as microalgae, have been known for the complexity of the metabolites they produce due to their adaptability to different environmental conditions, which has been an inexhaustible source of several bioactive properties, such as antioxidant, anti-tumor, and antimicrobial. This study aims to characterize the main metabolites of three species of microalgae (Nannochloropsis oceanica, Chaetoceros muelleri, and Conticribra weissflogii), which have important applications in the biofuel and nutrition industries, by ¹H High-resolution magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H HR-MAS NMR), a method which is non-destructive, is highly reproducible, and requires minimal sample preparation.
