Optimised Production and Extraction of Astaxanthin from the Yeast <i>Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous</i>

Optimised Production and Extraction of Astaxanthin from the Yeast <i>Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous</i>

Currently, astaxanthin demand is fulfilled by chemical synthesis using petroleum-based feedstocks. As such, alternative pathways of natural astaxanthin production attracts much research interest. This study aimed at optimising bioreactor operation parameters for astaxanthin production and evaluating...
