Insect frass as a fertilizer for the cultivation of protein-rich Chlorella vulgaris

This dataset includes 8 files that compile data on microalgal growth and protein content, as well as nutrient concentration and bacteria in growth media. The data was used in ProFuture H2020 project where insect frass was investigated as a potential nutrient source for microalgal cultivation and its effect on the protein content of the microalgae Chlorella vulgaris. Specifically, in this dataset, you can find data on Optical density, maximum quantum yield, and protein content of C. vulgaris grown on control medium and insect fass-based growth media, nutrient concentration (total dissolved Nitrogen, Ammonium-Nitrogen, Nitrate-Nitrogen, Urea-Nitrogen, phosphate-Phosphorous, dissolved organic carbon) and bacteria concentration and community composition during cultivation.
