Spirulena Platensis, a blue-green algae, has been recognized and
used worldwide as a traditional source of protein in the food
industry. The uses and mass cultivation of this algae have risen
substantially due to an increased understanding of its biological
systems. This text contains detailed descriptions of both the
biology and the biotechnological uses of Spirulena Platensis. Part
One focuses on the physiology, morphology, photosyntheses and
genetics of laboratory cultures. Part Two discusses the practical
uses in biotechnology industries, such as: the cultivation on
flat-plate reactors; mass cultures outdoors; uses in wastewater
treatment and the use of biomass. It offers critiques of the
problems encountered and discussions of the future commercial
prospects for large-scale production.
