Decreasing of bacterial content in Isochrysis galbana cultures by using some antibiotics

The axenic microalgae cultures are a difficult task and they are hard to maintain. Microalgae cultures with reduced bacterial load can be an option to axenic microalgae cultures to produce compounds with biotechnological and pharmaceutical potential. Also they can be used for cryopreservation and in...
