Nowadays, the consumption of antioxidants is quite common because it helps to prevent or neutralize the effect of free radicals that can cause various diseases. A rich source of these antioxidants is the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis, which is of great biotechnological and economic interest due to its high antioxidant content, including astaxanthin, which has taken on great importance and biotechnological application attributed for its health benefits when consumed, as it has a high antioxidant capacity, helps regulate blood sugar levels, contributes to the prevention of cardiovascular diseases and can help treat or prevent cancer and contributes to the prevention of cardiovascular diseases. It can help treat or prevent cancer without causing adverse effects on human health, for its benefits it is widely used in the food, beverage, cosmetics, pharmaceutical, and nutraceutical industries to obtain new products enriched with astaxanthin. Considering the relevance of astaxanthin production, the effect of growth factors in the green phase on the antioxidant activity of cell extracts of the microalga H. pluvialis is currently being evaluated.
