Abstract
|
|
|
The characteristic of Cyanophyte genus SG63 is similar to that of Aphanot hece sp. The optimal growth was found with the concentration of NaCl and MgSO_4¡¤7H_2O on the culture medium. The most optimal condition is 56¢¶of NaCl (S4 medium) and 20¢¶of MgSO_4¡¤7H_2O (M2 medium). The synthesis of chorophyll ¥á, phycocyanin and soluble proteins is affected by the concentration of the two mineral elements in culture. Especially, the content of chlorophyll ¥á and phycocyanin decreases on the most highly saline medium. The identified principal carotenoids are ¥â-carotene, echinenone, zeaxanthin and myxoxanthophyll. The rates of concentration of protein/chlorophyll ¥á and phycocyanin/chlorophyll ¥á are low on the S4 medium. Inversely, these rates are the highest on the M2 medium. Accordingly, the high concentration of MgSO_4¡¤7H_2O provoke the synthesis of phycocyanin and total proteins.
