Based on the success of the first edition, Pigments from Microalgae Handbook – Second Edition, Volume I: Biological Foundations, Environmental Influences and Analytical Methods is the first of a comprehensive three-volume series offering an authoritative and up-to-date reference on the science, technology, and applications of microalgal pigments. Carefully updated and expanded, this new edition consolidates the most pressing guidelines and cutting-edge developments in scientific research, technological innovation, and practical applications related to microalgal pigments.

Each chapter in this fully revised volume reflects the latest scientific advances in microalgal pigment research, integrating fundamental concepts such as occurrence, distribution, and biosynthesis with emerging insights into environmental modulation, including the impacts of climate change on pigment production and photosynthesis. The handbook also features state-of-the-art analytical methodologies for the identification, quantification, and bioavailability of key pigment classes — chlorophylls, carotenoids, and phycobiliproteins — alongside sustainable extraction strategies and green chemistry approaches designed to optimize recovery and support advanced biotechnological applications.

Presented in an accessible and well-organized format, this handbook is an indispensable resource for researchers, academics, and professionals in biochemistry, food chemistry, industrial microbiology, and biotechnology industries seeking to deepen their expertise or drive innovation in microalgal pigment applications.
