MICROALGAE AS TOCOPHEROL PRODUCERS [PDF]

Biotechnologia Acta, 2014
Microalgae are able to accumulate considerable amounts of tocopherols (up to 4 mg/g dry weight). The content of α-tocopherol to plant oils is low, whereas microalgae contain up to 97% of the tocochromanols that provides high bioactivity.
