Experimental results obtained in the optimization. Results are shown for the biomass yield (g/L) (a), sugar consumption (%) (b), oil content (%, w/wDB) (c) and protein content (%, w/wDB) (d) at 48 and 72 h of fermentation. w/wDB is the mass of the component (oil or protein)/mass of dry biomass. Temperature and pH of each experimental run: 1 = 24 °C, 3.8; 2 = 24 °C, 4.5; 3 = 32 °C, 3.8; 4 = 32 °C, 4.5; 5 = 32 °C, 4.5; 6 = 28 °C, 4.5; 7 = 28 °C, 4.7; 8 = 22.4 °C, 4.1; 9 = 33.6 °C, 4.1; 10 = 33.6 °C, 4.1; 11 = 33.6 °C, 4.1
