Comprehensive Growth Analysis to Detect Optimal Time Point for Carotenoid Production: A Comparative Study in Spirulina subsalsa and Chlorella pyrenoidosa

Abstract This study investigated the growth dynamics of Spirulina subsalsa and Chlorella pyrenoidosa under standardized phototrophic cultivation conditions to determine the optimal harvest time for maximum carotenoid yield. Both species were maintained at temperature (28℃-35℃), relative humidity (52...
