Sequential carotenoids extraction and biodiesel production from Rhodosporidium toruloides NCYC 921 biomass

ABSTRACT: A new process for co-extraction and separation of fatty acids and carotenoids from Rhodosporidium toruloides NCYC 921 biomass in order to achieve full exploitation of the yeast lipidic fraction is described. A saponification of the wet yeast biomass was performed using a potassium hydroxid...
