Abstract
BACKGROUND The cyanobacterium Arthrospira contains proteins and the blue pigment phycocyanin that can be used as a natural colourant in the food industry. The aim of this study was to investigate a strategy for increasing the yield of phycocyanin and protein from Arthrospira cultures by shading the cultures with neutral density and red light filters. Experiments were conducted under three different irradiance conditions: (i) laboratory tests...
