A novel strategy for the hyper-production of astaxanthin from the newly isolated microalga Haematococcus pluvialis JNU35

The two-stage cultivation system is widely employed for natural astaxanthin production using Haematococcus pluvialis, but the high biomass concentration of green vegetative cells (GVCs) is often difficult to achieve and little has been known about the combined photoinduction effect of light path (LP, inner diameter of 3 cm or 6 cm) and illumination mode (IM, unilateral or bilateral high light illumination). On the basis of isolating an excellent...
