Production of microbial carotenoids by Rhodotorula lactosa isolated in the Brazilian tropical savanna / Produção de carotenoides microbianos por Rhodotorula lactosa isolada na savana tropical brasileira
Abstract:Exploration of new biomes to obtain microorganisms of industrial interest can reveal a number of new strains but they are not all equally efficient in their carotenoids production under different environmental conditions. Screening is needed to select the elite strain and thus commercially produce the pigment. The main objective of this study was to increase the carotenoid production capacity of a recently isolated yeast obtained from the Cerrado (Brazilian tropical savanna) biome. Four hundred and seventy yea… Show more
