Abstrakt: In this study, Haematococcus pluvialis and Coelastrella saipanensis were evaluated for heterotrophic nutrition potential in dairy waste medium by blocking the PSII using DCMU. The study was done by four sets of experiments. In the first set, in the different concentrations DCMU-treatments, 20μL showed pronounced effect in H. pluvialis and C. saipanensis as 89 % and 83% decrease in cells (>30 and > 250 cells/mL) compared to control (536 ± 12.35 × 10 4 and 1167 ± 15.35 × 10 4  cells/mL, respectively). Damage to the PS II by DCMU interrupted the growth, which in turn produced a significant drop in the number of cells. In the second round of experiment, growth of algae in various dairy waste concentrations suggest that dairy wastewater (DWW) provides enough nutrients to produce 35.71 % and 64.74 % more cells in H. pluvialis and C. saipanensis, respectively compared to the control. In the third set, high DCMU concentration was added to microalgae cultures in DWW to assess the heterotrophic nutrition potential. Growth in cell number 34.4 ± 19 and 617.46 ± 60.44 cells/mL was recorded in H. pluvialis and C. saipanensis when grown control medium whereas addition of DCMU reduced the cell number to 1.53 ± 0.75 and 55.13 ± 0.75 cells/mL on 15 th day, respectively. This shows cells in cultures treated with DCMU reveal that algae can sustain their metabolic activity by utilizing the nutrients of dairy waste inhibiting photosystem. Fourth round of experiments found that microalgae could resume their growth and productivity by adapting to heterotrophic nutritional behaviour when DCMU given in mild dose at different time interval. This study conclude as C. saipanensis grows more readily by absorbing dairy waste nutrients than H. pluvialis. Therefore, C. saipanensis is an excellent choice for wastewater treatment through sustainable environmentally benign process after scale-up investigation. These results provide useful information to advance to molecular study for measuring microalgae's capability for bioremediation application.
