Spirulina for the food and functional food industries.
Tomás Lafarga,José M. Fernández-Sevilla,Cynthia Victoria González-López,Francisco Gabriel Acién-Fernández +3 more
TL;DR: Current and potential applications of this microalga in the food and functional food industries were reviewed and health benefits associated with consuming Spirulina and/or some of the most important compounds derived fromspirulina were discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maximizing carotenoid extraction from microalgae used as food additives and determined by liquid chromatography (HPLC).
M.C. Cerón-García,Cynthia Victoria González-López,J. Camacho-Rodríguez,L. López-Rosales,Francisco García-Camacho,Emilio Molina-Grima +5 more
TL;DR: This work presents a comprehensive study on the recovery of carotenoids from several microalgae genera, optimizingCarotenoid extraction using alkaline saponification at various temperatures and KOH concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tomás Lafarga,Ruth Rodríguez-Bermúdez,Ainoa Morillas-España,Silvia Villaró,Marco García-Vaquero,Lara Morán,Ana Sánchez-Zurano,Cynthia Victoria González-López,Francisco Gabriel Acién-Fernández +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, Spanish consumers consider microalgae as: (i) sustainable and environmentally friendly, (ii) nutritious and healthy, and (iii) safe, which is of key importance for food products.
Journal ArticleDOI
Year-long production of Scenedesmus almeriensis in pilot-scale raceway and thin-layer cascade photobioreactors
Ainoa Morillas-España,Tomás Lafarga,Cintia Gómez-Serrano,Francisco Gabriel Acién-Fernández,Cynthia Victoria González-López +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used three different photobioreactor designs to produce Scenedesmus almeriensis for 12 months and achieved a biomass productivity of 30-35 g/m2·day, higher than those obtained using raceways during the same period.
Journal ArticleDOI
