Identification and quantification of bacteria associated with cultivated Spirulina and impact of physiological factors by Mogale, Motlalekgomo

“…This study sought to identify the microorganisms that typically contaminate Spirulina cultivation ponds, to understand their interaction with Spirulina biomass during cultivation and to evaluate the vulnerabilities of these contaminants, in order to generate strategies for controlling their populations during open pond cultivation. The main objectives of this study were therefore: • To quantify the bacterial load in processed Spirulina powder from a single pilot facility to ascertain the presence of the contaminant in the final product derived from the outdoor pond system used as a case study, and to quantify the bacterial load in the outdoor cultivation cultures. • To identify and characterize the bacteria associated with these Spirulina cultures and processed powder from a pilot operation carried out in Franschhoek, South Africa, with a particular focus on evaluating the likelihood for pathogens. • To establish the dynamics of the relationship between Spirulina and bacterial growth under different environmental conditions including pH, salinity and temperature. • To develop practical methods to control and minimize contamination.…”
