Cultured Microalgae for the Food Industry: Current and Potential Applications is a comprehensive reference that addresses the current applications and potential uses of microalgae and microalgae-derived compounds in the food industry. The book explores the different steps of the subject, from strain selection and cultivation steps, to the assessment of the public perception of microalgae consumption and the gastronomical potential of this innovative resource. Readers will find coverage of microalgae biology, common and uncommon algae species, cultivation strategies for food applications, novel extraction techniques, safety issues, regulatory issues, and current market opportunities and challenges.
This title also explores the gastronomic potential of microalgae and reviews current commercialized products along with consumer attitudes surrounding microalgae. Covering relevant, up-to-date research as assembled by a group of contributors who are experts in their respective fields, the book is an essential reading for advanced undergraduates, postgraduates, and researchers in the microbiology, biotechnology, food science and technology fields.
- Thoroughly explores the optimization, cultivation and extraction processes for increased bioactive compound yields
- Includes industrial functionality, bio-accessibility and the bioavailability of the main compounds obtained from microalgae
- Presents novel trends and the gastronomic potential of microalgae utilization in the food industry

About the Author
Tomás Lafarga: Following on from his Master in Chemical Engineering, degree specialization in Biotechnology and Food Science at the University of Almeria in Spain, Tomás Lafarga was awarded with a Teagasc Walsh Fellowship and completed a PhD in Agriculture and Food Science at University College Dublin, one of the leading research-intensive European universities and Teagasc, the Irish Agriculture and Food Development Authority. Dr Lafarga has over 90 publications on varied aspects of food sustainability and waste management published in high impact factor journals and books and book chapters and over 50 contributions to national and international conferences. He has received several professional scholarships and awards including Juan de la Cierva and Ramón y Cajal fellowships awarded by the Spanish Gobernment and a Wang Shang Fellowship awarded by the International Society for Nutraceuticals and Functional Foods on recognition for his outstanding performance in graduate studies and research on nutraceuticals and functional foods. After his PhD, Dr Lafarga worked as a Scientific Researcher in the Institute of Agrifood Research and Technology (IRTA) in Lleida and the Department of Chemical Engineering of the University of Almería in Spain. His research lines include the development of novel safe, high-quality, and healthy foods using non-thermal and environmentally-friendly technologies and the revalorization of waste and food co-products to obtain novel ingredients and reduce the environmental impact of food processing. He is a member of the Editorial Board of the International Journal of Food Science and Technology and a scientific member of SOLABIAA and RENUWAL. Dr Lafarga co-edited the book “Cultured Microalgae for the food industry.
Francisco Gabriel Acién-Fernández: Dr Acién-Fernández successfully completed his Doctoral Thesis at the University of Almería in 1996. He is since 1999 a Full Professor at the Department of Engineering of the University of Almeria and instructs in Chemistry, Industrial Biotechnology, Chemical Engineering, and Agricultural Engineering. Over the last decade, Prof Acién-Fernández has collaborated as a Lecturer at the Universities of Seville and Malaga, both in Spain, and was invited to instruct in numerous specialized courses at prestigious Universities including the Universities of Wageningen, Milan, Xalapa, and Medellin among others. He has also supervised more than 35 Bachelor and Master Projects and directed over 10 Ph.D. Theses. Over the past 20 years, Prof Acién-Fernandez has collaborated with leading groups in the field of microalgae cultivation for biofuel and food applications as well as microalgae-based wastewater treatment. His research lines include the optimization of microalgae cultivation strategies, revalorization of wastewater and food processing co-products, and production of high value-added compounds for food and nutraceutical applications. He has been actively involved as a collaborator, principal investigator, or coordinator in over 30 national and international research projects. Prof Acién published over 200 publications in high impact factor journals and co-authored more than 20 books or book chapters dealing with microalgae biomass cultivation. His research has been presented in over 100 national and international conferences and he is a Member of the Executive Board of prestigious international societies and associations including the International Society for Applied Phycology and the European Algae Biomass Association. He is a member of the Editorial Board of Algal Research and co-edited the book “Cultured Microalgae for the food industry

(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
