主权项 1. A method for the separation of microalgae from an aqueous suspension of microalgae, while maintaining the integrity of the microalgal cell structure, comprising, a) discontinuing providing additional nutrient media to the aqueous suspension of microalgae; b) adding to the aqueous suspension of microalgae a bioflocculating bacteria, causing flocculation of at least some of the microalgae cells, wherein the bioflocculating bacteria is Paenbacillus polymyxa Strain 2 deposited with the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) under Accession Number PTA-12841; and c) removing at least a portion of the liquid of the suspension.
