Enhancement of astaxanthin accumulation using black light in Coelastrum and Monoraphidium isolated from Malaysia
Abstract Microalgae are important microorganisms which produce potentially valuable compounds. Astaxanthin, a group of xanthophyll carotenoids, is one of the most powerful antioxidants mainly found in microalgae, yeasts, and crustaceans. Environmental stresses such as intense light, drought, high sa...
