Abstract

The paper concerns the growth of Spirulina platensis under laboratory culture conditions, in nutritive media containing different concentrations of procaine. It was stated that lower concentrations induce a slight increase of the biomass production; e.g. experimental variant containing 1 mg procaine per liter reached an algal production of 107.5% as related to the control cultures. This stimulative effect may be of interest for the large scale culture of Spirulina.
