Zusammenfassung:IMPROVED METHOD OF PRODUCING LYCOPENE THROUGH THE FERMENTATION OF SELECTED STRAINS OF B1akeslea trispora, FORMULATIONS AND USES OF THE LYCOPENE THUS OBTAINED 5 Abstract The method of fermentation with selected strains of B. trispora described in the present invention makes it possible to achieve lycopene yields higher than those currently described. The methods of isolation, purification 10 and formulation are applicable to any natural source of lycopene, especially to submerged cultures of mucoral fungi of the genera Blakeslea, Choanephora, Phycomyces or Mucor. The method of extraction makes it possible to simplify the recovery process and increase the purity of the product, is relative to the methods previously described. The methods of formulation provide high added value, since they make it possible to obtain stabilized preparations of lycopene for direct application in the food and pharmaceutical fields.
