COMPOSITION FOR CULTURING CHLAMYDOMONAS MUTANTS AND CULTURE METHOD THEREOF

摘要

The present invention is to increase the production of zeaxanthin from a mutant Chlamydomonas reinhardtii having a zeaxanthin-producing ability without producing lutein, a culture composition optimal for culturing the mutant and a method for culturing the same, and A method for producing zeaxanthin therefrom is provided. In the case of using the culture composition and culture method of the present invention, compared to the case of using the conventional culture composition of Chlamydomonas rain hard T, improved zeaxanthin production of about 1.65 times or more is possible, so it is possible to efficiently produce a pigment at an industrial level and , it can be applied as a raw material for food, health functional food, and pharmaceuticals containing it.
