Microalgae as Sources of Carotenoids.

Posted on July 6, 2015 by Dr. Gary Pack

Microalgae are at the bottom of the food chain. They are microscopic and made of one cell. They are found in fresh and salt water. They absorb water and carbon dioxide, which are converted by sunlight into organic compounds (photosynthesis). They grow in a wide range of physical conditions and have fast growth rates. Algae […]
