Morphological Change and Cell Disruption of <i>Haematococcus pluvialis</i> Cyst during High-Pressure Homogenization for Astaxanthin Recovery
<i>Haematococcus pluvialis</i> accumulates astaxanthin, which is a high-value antioxidant, during the red cyst stage of its lifecycle. The development of a rigid cell wall in the cysts hinders the recovery of astaxanthin. We investigated morphological changes and cell disruption of matur...
