Sustainable approach to recover β-carotene and astaxanthin from Phaffia rhodozyma grown in a stirred-tank bioreactor under the influence of magnetic fields.

This study aimed to produce carotenoids by Phaffia rhodozyma in a stirred-tank bioreactor under the influence of magnetic fields (MF) and to evaluate a sustainable approach to recover them from the yeast biomass. MF application proved to be effective in increasing 8.6 and 22.

Microbial Colorants Production in Stirred-Tank Bioreactor and Their Incorporation in an Alternative Food Packaging Biomaterial.

Natural colorants from microbial fermentation have gained significant attention in the market to replace the synthetic ones. spp. produce yellow-orange-red colorants, appearing as a potential microorganism to be used for this purpose.
