The stimulation of astaxanthin synthesis in Haematococcus pluvialis cells under high-intensity light in the combined action of Rose Bengal photosensitizer has been established. It was revealed that when Rose Bengal was used as an additional inducer of carotenogenesis in high-intensity light, the dry weight of the Haematococcus and the diameter of the cells in suspension increase compared to the action of only high-intensity light on algae cells. The observed increases in dry weight are significant and reach 40 % excess over control. We suggest that the increase in dry weight, Haematococcus cell diameter and astaxanthin yield when H. pluvialis photosensitizer is added to the incubation medium against the background of high-intensity light is not associated with increased stress (since the used concentrations of Rose Bengal are too small to induce photo-oxidative stress), but the signaling properties of the generated Rose Bengal singlet oxygen, which may be the primary agent in the transduction of a signal that triggers increased synthesis of astaxanthin in H. pluvialis cells.

The content of astaxanthin, including its mono- and diesters, and photosynthetic pigments, was studied in cells of H. pluvialis strain IBCE-H17 under combined prolonged action of several inducers of astaxanthin accumulation. The ineffectiveness of the simultaneous introduction of several inducers of astaxanthin accumulation in the culture medium during high-intensity light treatment was shown.

The effect of NaCl (25, 50, 100, 200 and 300 mM) on the productivity of the Haematococcus pluvialis strain IBCE H-17 on such parameters as dry biomass, content of protein, photosynthetic pigments, as well as astaxanthin and reactive oxygen species (ROS) was studied. It was found that NaCl at low and medium concentrations (25, 50 and 100 mM) in the culture medium stimulated the accumulation of dry biomass during the first 7 days of cultivation on average 1,3 times as compared to the control (Rudik’s standard medium). After 12 days of incubation, stimulation averaged 33 % using 25 and 50 mM salt. The protein content on a dry weight basis fell, averaging 70 % of the control on the 7th day of incubation with 50–300 mM salt and 55 % on the 12th day for a salt concentration of 100–300 mM. When the algae was grown for 7 days on solutions containing NaCl, the total content of photosynthetic pigments – chlorophylls (Chl) a and b as well as the carotenoids neoxanthine, violaxanthin, lutein and β-carotene decreased. Chl b was more resistant to salinity than Chl a. Of all the pigments, NaCl exerts the greatest negative effect on β-carotene. Stress conditions created by NaCl led to the generation of ROS, in particular, after 7 days of cultivation the total ROS content in the “NaCl-100” variant was 1.7 times higher than that in the control culture and 3.0 times higher than the control in the 12-day culture. A significant positive effect of salinity on the content of astaxanthin was noted. The maximum effect was observed with 100 mM NaCl. After 7 days of incubation, the content of astaxanthin exceeded the control indices by 2.8 times, and after 12 days – by 20.5 times. The number of algae cells after 7 days of incubation in the “NaCl-100” variant decreased on average by 33 %, while the cell diameter increased by 29 %.

The content of astaxanthin, including its mono- and diesters, and photosynthetic pigments, has been analyzed in cells of H. pluvialis strain IBCE-H17 under the combined prolonged action of several inducers of astaxanthin accumulation. The effective induction of the astaxanthin accumulation, mainly in the form of monoesters of fatty acids, was shown after a 20-day cultivation under high-intensity light and with the addition of 1-2 g/l of sodium acetate to the culture medium. A simultaneous decrease in the content of chlorophylls and lutein in the H. pluvialis cells was observed under these conditions. The use of sodium acetate in combination with sodium chloride did not lead to noticeable changes in the content of astaxanthin compared with the use of sodium acetate alone. The obtained data can be helpful in the biotechnological production of Haematococcus biomass enriched with economically valuable compounds. astaxanthin, Haematococcus pluvialis, pigments, sodium acetate, sodium chloride, high-intensity light.

The nutrient composition of 15 commercially available microalgae powders of Arthrospira platensis, Chlorella pyrenoidosa and vulgaris, Dunaliella salina, Haematococcus pluvialis, Tetraselmis chuii, and Aphanizomenon flos-aquae was analyzed. The Dunaliella salina powders were characterized by a high content of carbohydrates, saturated fatty acids (SFAs), omega-6-polyunsaturated fatty acids (n6-PUFAs), heavy metals, and α-tocopherol, whereas the protein amounts, essential amino acids (EAAs), omega-3-PUFAs (n3-PUFAs), vitamins, and minerals were low. In the powder of Haematococcus pluvialis, ten times higher amounts of carotenoids compared to all other analyzed powders were determined, yet it was low in vitamins D and E, protein, and EAAs, and the n6/n3-PUFAs ratio was comparably high. Vitamin B12, quantified as cobalamin, was below 0.02 mg/100 g dry weight (d.w.) in all studied powders. Based on our analysis, microalgae such as Aphanizomenon and Chlorella may contribute to an adequate intake of critical nutrients such as protein with a high content of EAAs, dietary fibers, n3-PUFAs, Ca, Fe, Mg, and Zn, as well as vitamin D and E. Yet, the nutritional value of Aphanizomenon flos-aquae was slightly decreased by high contents of SFAs. The present data show that microalgae are rich in valuable nutrients, but the macro- and micronutrient profiles differ strongly between and within species.
