Effect of CO<sub>2</sub> Flow Rate on the Extraction of Astaxanthin and Fatty Acids from <i>Haematococcus pluvialis</i> Using Supercritical Fluid Technology

Effect of CO<sub>2</sub> Flow Rate on the Extraction of Astaxanthin and Fatty Acids from <i>Haematococcus pluvialis</i> Using Supercritical Fluid Technology

<i>Haematococcus pluvialis</i> is the largest producer of natural astaxanthin in the world. Astaxanthin is a bioactive compound used in food, feed, nutraceutics, and cosmetics. In this study, astaxanthin extraction from <i>H. pluvialis</i> by supercritical fluid extraction wa...
