- Phycocyanin production in seawater culture of arthrospira maxima Teresa Lamela Facundo J. Márquez Rocha Ciencias de la Tierra pigments phycocyanin seawater culture Arthrospira maxima Three seawater-based media were used for biomass and phycocyanin production by Arthrospiramaxima. Among the three seawater-based media, growth rate and biomass were lowest in SWMAB,which is identical to SWM but includes several known essential elements (Zn, Cu, Mo, Mn). Growth inSWMX2, which has double the concentration of NaHCO3, N, P and FeEDTA than SWM, was notsignificantly different. Arthrospira maxima reached a biomass concentration of 2.7 ± 0.06 g L1 in amineral standard medium, but <1.2 ± 0.09 g L1 in the seawater-based media. Pigment content in cellsgrown in the seawater-based media was <2.78 ± 0.46, <1.85 ± 0.18 and <19.83 ± 3.16 mg g1 cellfor chlorophyll a, carotenoids and phycocyanin, respectively. The phycocyanin produced in theseawater-based media had slightly different absorption and fluorescence maxima compared to those ofA.platensis. 2000 artículo científico 0185-3880 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=48002604 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=480 Ciencias Marinas application/pdf Universidad Autónoma de Baja California Ciencias Marinas (México) Num.4 Vol.26
