Abstract

Adding lycopene can promote the astaxanthin content significantly.However,it is very expensive.Tomato juice,which is very cheap,contains much lycopene.Therefore,it was a good substitute.The result showed that the best feeding time of tomato juice was at 36h culture time.The maximum astaxanthin content and production was reached 1318μg/g and 17.87mg/L respectively after 96h culture time.
