[ 1 ] - Carotenoid Production by Rhodotorula sp. on Fruit Waste Extract As a Sole Carbon Source and Optimization of Key Parameters

Fruit waste extract was selected as the sole substrate for carotenoid production and the effect of parameters like pH, temperature and agitation have been studied. A two-step simple sequential strategy was employed for the optimization of carotenoid production by Rhodotorula rubra. In the first step, one factor at a time was employed to evaluate the impact of pH on carotenoid production. Th...
