Zinc Supplementation Boosts Spirulina Growth and Antioxidant Capacity, Study Finds
Scientific reports indicate zinc sulfate supplementation significantly enhances spirulina growth and physiological characteristics. Batch addition methods reportedly yield up to 20% biomass increase while improving antioxidant defenses against oxidative stress.
Zinc Optimization Enhances Microalgae Cultivation
Recent scientific research has uncovered significant benefits of zinc supplementation in Arthrospira platensis cultivation, commonly known as spirulina. According to reports published in Scientific Reports, carefully controlled zinc sulfate concentrations and application methods can substantially improve growth metrics and physiological characteristics of this economically important cyanobacterium.
