The present application relates to a kind of by chrysophyte
fermentation-light
coupling high-efficiency production of
fucoxanthin method, comprising: chrysophyte is inoculated into fermenter and is carried out heterotrophic culture, while the algal liquid is continuously or intermittently lighted;Culture medium includes basic medium and feed medium, C / N is 4:1-40:1,
nitrogen source uses organic
nitrogen source or inorganic
ammonium nitrogen;The glucose concentration in basic medium is 5-15g / L, temperature is 25-32℃, dissolved
oxygen is controlled at 5-80%, pH is 4-8,
light intensity 5-600 μmol m ‑2 s ‑1 ;Glucose concentration is monitored in time during the cultivation process, when glucose concentration is reduced to 0.5-3g / L, using
peristaltic pump to flow feed medium is added to flow culture, control the glucose concentration in whole flow culture process in 1-10g / L;After 100h of cultivation, every 1-5h is sampled to detect the
biomass dry weight contained in the culture medium in fermenter, when the detection value is unchanged or begins to drop,
fermentation is finished, harvest, and the harvested product is used for extracting
fucoxanthin.The present application establishes the feasibility basis of
fermentation-light
coupling chrysophyte cultivation to scale production of
fucoxanthin.
