Changes in the fucoxanthin production and protein profiles in Cylindrotheca closterium in response to blue light-emitting diode light

Abstract Background Marine diatoms have a higher fucoxanthin content in comparison to macroalgae. Fucoxanthin features many potent bioactive properties, particularly anti-obesity properties. Despite the great potential for harvesting larger amounts of fucoxanthin, the impacts of light quality (light...
