Resumen:
In this paper, the biomass and lutein productivity of the lutein-rich new strain Scenedesmus almeriensis is modelled versus irradiance and temperature. The results demonstrate that S. almeriensis is a mesophile microorganism with an optimal growth temperature of 35º C, and capable of withstanding up to 48º C, which caused culture death. This strain es also tolerant to high irradiances, showing no signs of photoinhibition even ...
