Abstract

The demand for organic pigments across various industries, including food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals, has led to a quest for diverse and sustainable sources. Microalgae of the Dunaliella species have emerged as promising candidates for pigment production due to their ability to mitigate CO2 emissions and thrive under extreme environmental conditions, such as high salinity and intense light exposure, even in sub-zero temperatures. This review uses Dunaliella species to explore the bioprocesses harnessing natural pigments, including chlorophylls (a, b, c, d, and f), carotenes (α and β), and xanthophylls. This review investigates the important process parameters: synthetic mediums, light regimes, CO2 utilization strategies, and solvent choices employed in pigment production from Dunaliella species. Moreover, it analyzes this expanding industry’s economic and environmental impacts, emphasizing the need for cost-effective and eco-friendly large-scale applications. By elucidating advancements in cultivation, extraction techniques, and pigment utilization, this review aims to pave the way for the widespread adoption of Dunaliella-based pigment extraction, promising a greener and more sustainable future.

拓展视野:利用杜氏微藻实现可持续有机色素生产
包括食品、化妆品和制药在内的各个行业对有机颜料的需求导致了对多样化和可持续来源的追求。Dunaliella物种的微藻已成为有希望的色素生产候选者,因为它们能够减少二氧化碳排放,并在极端环境条件下茁壮成长,例如高盐度和强光照射,甚至在零度以下的温度下。本文综述了杜氏藻利用天然色素的生物过程,包括叶绿素(a、b、c、d和f)、胡萝卜素(α和β)和叶黄素。本文综述了杜氏藻色素生产的重要工艺参数:合成介质、光照条件、CO2利用策略和溶剂选择。此外,它还分析了这一不断扩大的行业的经济和环境影响,强调了成本效益和生态友好的大规模应用的必要性。本文综述了杜氏藻色素提取技术在栽培、提取和利用等方面的研究进展,为杜氏藻色素提取技术的广泛应用奠定了基础,展望了杜氏藻色素提取技术的绿色可持续发展前景。
