Abstract:Arthrospira platensis is a cyanobacterium that exhibits a large biotechnological interest for the food industry because of its high protein content, pigments, lipids and carbohydrates. The extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are co-products of secondary metabolism that may present thickening or gelling property. A 3-level factorial design was used to study the combined effect of different nitrate concentrations and photon flux density (PFD) to evaluate the biomass and EPS production by Arthrospira platens… Show more
