| Abstract | : | Biofilm-based cultivation systems are emerging as a promising technology for microalgae production. However, efficient and non-invasive monitoring routines are still lacking. Here, a protocol to monitor microalgae biofilms based on reflectance indices (RIs) is proposed. This framework was developed using a rotating biofilm system for astaxanthin production by cultivating Haematococcus pluvialis on cotton carriers. Biofilm traits such as biomass, astaxanthin, and chlorophyll were characterized under different light and nutrient regimes. Reflectance spectra were collected to identify the spectral bands and the RIs that correlated the most with those biofilm traits. Robust linear models built on more than 170 spectra were selected and validated on an independent dataset. Astaxanthin content could be precisely predicted over a dynamic range from 0 to 4% of dry weight, regardless of the cultivation conditions. This study demonstrates the strength of reflectance spectroscopy as a non-invasive tool to improve the operational efficiency of microalgae biofilm-based technology. |
