Screening of lutein content in several fresh-water microalgae

Lutein is the most abundant xanthophylls in the photosynthetic organisms and its dietary intake is thought to protect against the development of age-related macular degeneration. Microalgae are predicted to be the major contributors of lutein in the future and to date, various species of microalgae...
