Abstract

Microalgae convert light energy into chemical 
energy, producing high-value molecules. Arthrospira maxima is 
rich in carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, vitamins and minerals. It 
also produces phycocyanin, a protein with antioxidant and anti
inflammatory properties. The objective of this study was to 
evaluate the optimal conditions for the extraction of 
phycocyania produced by A. maxima grown in a raceway, using 
the Response Surface methodology.
