Abstract

Abstract:

Lutein is a natural pigment with multiple physiological functions for health protection. Nowadays, commercially available lutein products are mostly extracted from marigold, which suffers from some problems such as limited material resource and low productivity. Due to its promising, lutein biosynthesis by microalga has been attracted increasingly extensive attentions in recent years. Here, research progress of lutein biosynthesis by microalga including strain selection, biosynthetic pathway elucidation, culture parameter optimization, kinetic model establishment and extraction technique development are reviewed.

Key words: microalga, lutein, biosynthesis
