Resumen:
Nannochloropsis spp. is a marine photosynthetic microalgae that produces approximately 20% lipids and 35% protein. Oil extraction models on this alga have been developed for the production of biofuels. The remaining biomass was extracted under alkaline conditions to produce algal protein isolate. All the streams were quantified and characterized for peptides, amino acid composition, nitrogen content, and carbohydrates.
