Icelandic astaxanthin producer Algalif announces a €22m expansion to its production facilities in a round of investment that builds on 2019’s manufacturing upgrades to meet rising demand.
Israeli astaxanthin maker AlgaTech added a new ingredient to its portfolio, the whole-algae AstaPure Arava, named after the desert in which the company grows its microalgae.
A new study analyzing the protective role astaxanthin plays in UV-induced skin deterioration found that it may have innate skin protection benefits against direct UV radiation damage.
