Thirty-eight strains of Chlorella spp. were used as bioreactors on progesterone. Fourteen strains were ineffective whilst the others biotransformed the substrate. The observed bioreactions for progesterone were the hydroxylation, the reduction and the side-chain degradation. The kinds of biotransformation seem to fit the actual classification of the strains.
2β-Hydroxyprogesterone, 6β-hydroxyprogesterone, 9α-hydroxyprogesterone, 14α-hydroxyprogesterone, 16α-hydroxyprogesterone and 21-hydroxyprogesterone are the main bioproducts in the progesterone bioconversion by axenic cultures of Chlorella emersonii C211-8h. After 30 days 6β,9α-dihydroxyprogesterone, 6β,21-dihydroxy-progesterone and 16α,21-dihydroxyprogesterone are also formed. In acid conditions...
