Light Intensity and Nitrogen Concentration Impact on the Biomass and Phycoerythrin Production by <i>Porphyridium purpureum</i>

Several factors have the potential to influence microalgae growth. In the present study, nitrogen concentration and light intensity were evaluated in order to obtain high biomass production and high phycoerythrin accumulation from <i>Porphyridium purpureum</i>. The range of nitrogen conc...
