ABSTRACT:
The present study was conducted to ascertain the presence of lipids in Fresh water green algae Chara collected from the ponds of Durg Region of Chhattisgarh state in India. The preliminary study of physicochemical parameters as temperature, pH, DO and BOD helped in selection of plots for heavy Chara growth. The methanolic extract of Chara after subjecting to Thin layer chromatography (TLC) and confirmation by Gas Chromatography (GC) showed the presence of saturated fatty acids (SFA) as Lauric acid, Palmitic acid, Palmitoleic acid, Stearic acid, Arachidic acid, Margaric acid, Erucic acid and Behenic acid. Unstaurated fatty acids included both MUFA and PUFA. Important PUFA included EPA, DHA, Linoleic acid and γ-Linolenic acid (GLA). The concentration of saturated fatty acids was found to highest followed by PUFA and least concentration recorded was of MUFA. The study suggests the use of Chara as an alternative to conventional food crops and potential fuel.
