Supercritical CO2 extraction of Aurantiochytrium sp. biomass for the enhanced recovery of omega-3 fatty acids and phenolic compounds

The microalgae Aurantiochytrium sp. is a strong alternative source of ω-3 fatty acids, including ocosahexaenoic acid (DHA). This work encompasses the optimization of SFE conditions to maximize the total extraction yield (ηTotal), DHA content (CDHA), total phenolics content (TPC), and antioxidant cap...
