Effects of five enzymes on the lipid class percentage. A Undisrupted algal biomass; B disrupted algal biomass, and fatty acid composition of biodiesel (C) and NPLs (D) in the enzymatic ethanolysis of undisrupted and disrupted microalgae biomass. Reaction conditions: microalgae biomass (1 g dry weight), ethanol/biomass ratio (v/w) 10:1, reaction temperature 35 °C, water content 10% based on the microalgae biomass and ethanol, enzyme weight 10% based on the microalgae biomass, and reaction time 24 h. a,b,cThe mean values in the same line were significantly different (p < 0.05)
