Optimization of biomass, total carotenoids and astaxanthin production in Haematococcus pluvialis Flotow strain Steptoe (Nevada, USA) under laboratory conditions.
The microalga Haematococcus pluvialis Flotow is one of the natural sources of astaxanthin, a pigment widely used in salmon feed. This study was made to discover optimal conditions for biomass and astaxanthin production in H. pluvialis from Steptoe, Nevada (USA), cultured in batch mode. Growth was carried out under autotrophic (with NaNO3, NH4Cl and urea) and mixotrophic conditions (with 4, 8, 1...
متن کاملGrowth of Haematococcus pluvialis Flotow in alternative media.
Current study investigates the effect of two alternative media NPK (20-5-20) fertilizer and NPK plus macrophyte (M+NPK) compared to the commercial medium (WC) under growth rate and physiological parameters in batch culture mode (2-L), and verifies whether the use of fertilizer (NPK) and macrophyte (Eichhornia crassipes) would be a good tool for Haematococcus pluvialis culture in the laboratory....
متن کاملSources of inorganic fertilizer in the growth of Haematococcus pluvialis Flotow (Chlorophyceae)
The influence of inorganic fertilizer media at different concentrations on the growth and biochemical composition of Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae was evaluated. Microalgae were placed in a bath culture with inorganic fertilizer (NPK) medium and WC medium during 28 days, Growth and biological aspects of microalgae between the media were compared. Mineral concentrations affected the physiol...
متن کاملCarotenoid Distribution in Living Cells of Haematococcus pluvialis (Chlorophyceae)
Haematococcus pluvialis is a freshwater unicellular green microalga belonging to the class Chlorophyceae and is of commercial interest for its ability to accumulate massive amounts of the red ketocarotenoid astaxanthin (3,3'-dihydroxy-β,β-carotene-4,4'-dione). Using confocal Raman microscopy and multivariate analysis, we demonstrate the ability to spectrally resolve resonance-enhanced Raman sig...
متن کاملCharacterization of carotenoid hydroxylase gene promoter in Haematococcus pluvialis.
Astaxanthin, a high-value ketocarotenoid is mainly used in fish aquaculture. It also has potential in human health due to its higher antioxidant capacity than beta-carotene and vitamin E. The unicellular green alga Haematococcus pluvialis is known to accumulate astaxanthin in response to environmental stresses, such as high light intensity and salt stress. Carotenoid hydroxylase plays a key rol...
