The bioflocculation efficiency was depended on the pH, carbon sources, the initial algae concentrations, bacteria strains, and the inital bioflocculant-producing bacteria concentrations. The temperature lightly affected the bioflocculation, no noticeable behavioral or activity changes were observed in mice that were orally administrated with four bacterial strains, and no treatment-related illness or death occurred after 72 hours. In general, the bioflocculation process is easy to operate, cost-effective, environment-friendly and therefore, it can be applied for industrial processing of microalgae. | Characterization of bioflocculant-producing bacteria isolated in Vietnam and its use for harvesting indigenous microalgae
