Chemicals from Microalgae

<p>The production of chemicals from microalgae is becoming a significant area of biological research. <strong>Chemicals from Microalgae</strong> seeks to cover the various aspects that relate to the use of microalgae as a source of chemicals. The chapters discuss the occurrence and physiological role of these chemicals and concentrates on the methods aimed at enhancing their content as well as large-scale algal biomass production and down-stream processing. This work written by one of the true pioneers in the field describes the major algal chemicals of interest namely pigments and lipids.</p>
