Abstract:Microalgae are considered sources of compounds of high nutritional value. This study determined whether 400 μE/m2/s (HL) and 80 μE/m2/s (LL) light intensities and algal medium (AM) and f/2 Guillard medium (f/2GM) influence kinetic parameters, moisture, ash, lipids, carbohydrate, protein, amino acid, vitamins contents of the microalgae Nannochloropsis oculata and Porphyridium cruentum. N. oculata recorded the highest cell density of 341.64 ± 2.36 × 106 cells/ml under HL in AM, while P. cruentum achieved 56.60 ±… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
