The study found that R. salina can grow steadily under different salinity and pH conditions, with the most optimal growth observed at salinity 30 parts per thousand and pH 7.5. Phycoerythrin concentration was inversely related to productivity, presenting higher values in conditions not conducive to the growth of R. salina.
The cryptophyte Rhodomonas salina is widely used in aquaculture due to its high nutritional profile. This study aims to investigate the effect of salinity and pH on the growth, phycoerythrin concentrations, and concentrations of non-volatile umami taste active compounds of R. salina, using a design of experiment approach. Rhodomonas salina was cultivated in a flat-panel photobioreactor in turbidostat mode in a range of salinity (20-40 parts per thousand) and pH (6.5-8.5). The strain was able to grow steadily under all conditions, but the optimal productivity of 1.17 g dry weight L-1 day(-1) was observed in salinity 30 parts per thousand and pH 7.5. The phycoerythrin concentration was inversely related to productivity, presenting higher values in conditions that were not optimal for the growth of R. salina, 7% of dry weight at salinity 40 parts per thousand, and pH 8.5. The identification of the umami taste of R. salina was based on the synergistic effect of umami compounds 5 '-nucleotides (adenosine 5 '-monophosphate, guanosine 5 '-monophosphate, inosine 5 '-monophosphate) and free amino acids (glutamic and aspartic acids), using the equivalent umami concentration (EUC). The results indicated that an increase in pH induces the accumulation of 5 '-nucleotides, resulting in an EUC of 234 mg MSG g(-1) at a salinity of 40 and pH 8.5. The EUC values that were observed in R. salina were higher compared to other aquatic animals, a fact that makes R. salina promising for further research and application in the food and feed sectors.
