Geitler productivity}, url={https://biocomm.spbu.ru/article/view/885}, abstractNote={&lt;p&gt;The possibility of microalgae &lt;em&gt;Arthrospira platensis&lt;/em&gt; growing on mineral-organic medium, which consists of Zarrouk standard medium and chicken dung extract, has been investigated. The optimal balance of nutrient medium by the component composition of nutrients for &lt;em&gt;A. platensis&lt;/em&gt; growing has been determined. The graphs representing results of the experiments have been built and the basic characteristics of growth of culture &lt;em&gt;A. platensis&lt;/em&gt; have been calculated by approximating of the linear growth phase. Dependence of the &lt;em&gt;A. platensis&lt;/em&gt; growth kinetic characteristics from chicken dung extracts concentrations in the nutrient medium has been determined. It has been found that &lt;em&gt;A. platensis&lt;/em&gt; must be adapted to new culture conditions for intensive growth on the organic-mineral nutrient medium. Quantitative estimation of microalgae growth and productivity depending on culture conditions, in this case — from the composition of the nutrient medium, has been given, and it is shown that the productivity of culture was 1.6 times higher during cultivation on a nutrient medium with 15 % extract from chicken dung than in Zarrouk standard medium.
