The PB consists of gaining importance as a source of valuable products viz., protein moiety and a linear tetrapyrrole prosthetic group phycobiliproteins (PB), sulfated exopolysaccharides, and (phycobilins) attached to the polypeptide through thioether polyunsaturated fatty acids with potential applications in bonds. Based on spectroscopic properties, these proteins are the food and pharmaceutical industries. In the present study, broadly classi?ed into three groups—allophycocyanin the effects of the major media constituents of Porphyridium species were studied using response surface methodology (APC) (650–655 nm), C-phycocyanin (C-PC) (610– (RSM) on biomass yield, total PB and the production of 620 nm), and R-phycoerythrin (R-PE) (540–570 nm). Each phycoerythrin (PE). A second order polynomial can be used of these PB is comprised of two subunits a and b to which to predict the PB and PE production in terms of the linear tetrapyrrole is covalently attached by a cysteine independent variables. The independent variables such as thioether bond. The central portion of all the three groups is the concentrations of sodium chloride, magnesium sulfate, sodium nit
