  • Process for producing phycocyanin-rich biomass via URA culturing
    Patent number: 11560542
    Abstract: The invention relates to the cultivation of unicellular red algae (URA) for producing biomass for the production of products of interest, such as dry biomass or compounds or mixtures of compounds of interest extracted from the biomass produced, particularly food pigments or colouring agents. The invention more particularly relates to the industrial production of said biomass, which must satisfy an economic equilibrium of profitability, with both an increase in productivity (quantity of biomass and of compounds of interest in the biomass) and an economically acceptable production cost.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 27, 2019
    Date of Patent: January 24, 2023
    Assignee: FERMENTALG
    Inventors: Olivier Cagnac, Axel Athane, Marion Champeaud
  • METHOD FOR CULTURING UNICELLULAR RED ALGAE (URA) WITH MILK PERMEATE
    Publication number: 20220372428
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of culturing unicellular red algae (URA). The invention relates in particular to a method for culturing URA, characterised in that the culture medium includes milk permeate as the main contribution of at least one carbon source. The invention also relates to biomass which can be obtained by the method according to the invention, to the uses of said biomass and to the products that can include said biomass.
