Photoautotrophic microorganisms with biotechnological potential unexplored

The study of phototrophic organisms is becoming more common due to their high nutritional value and capacity to produce various bioactive compounds with potential use in food, pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, cosmeceutical, and chemical industries. These compounds have nutritional and therapeutic properties such as neuroprotective, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticoagulant, hyperlipidemic, immunomodulatory, and immunoregulatory. For this reason, phototrophic organisms are an essential supply for different industries since they can satisfy their current commercial demand while reducing the environmental impact and promoting the bioeconomic development of the country. However, research on these microorganisms is still limited and focused on a limited group of species. This review examines the biotechnological applications of bioactive metabolites produced by several photoautotrophic microbial species from poorly explored environments and their industrial application. As a result, we could determine that there are many little-explored species with a wide variety of bioactive compounds. Moreover, they have potential uses in various industries such as nutraceuticals, cosmeceuticals, and energy. Furthermore, it was concluded that the bioindustry represents a business opportunity and can also be established as a platform for modernization and competitiveness for various country's economic sectors.

El estudio de los organismos fototróficos es cada vez más frecuente debido a su alto valor nutricional y a su capacidad para producir diversos compuestos bioactivos con potencial uso en la industria alimentaria, farmacéutica, nutracéutica, cosmecéutica y química. Estos compuestos tienen propiedades nutricionales y terapéuticas como neuroprotectoras, antioxidantes, antiinflamatorias, anticoagulantes, hiperlipidémicas, inmunomoduladoras e inmunorreguladoras. Por esta razón, los organismos fototróficos son un suministro esencial para diferentes industrias, ya que pueden satisfacer su demanda comercial actual, al tiempo que reducen el impacto ambiental y promueven el desarrollo bioeconómico del país. Sin embargo, la investigación sobre estos microorganismos es todavía limitada y se centra en un grupo reducido de especies. Esta revisión examina las aplicaciones biotecnológicas de los metabolitos bioactivos producidos por varias especies microbianas fotoautótrofas procedentes de entornos poco explorados y su aplicación industrial. Como resultado, pudimos determinar que existen especies poco exploradas con una gran variedad de compuestos bioactivos. Estos tienen usos potenciales en diversas industrias como la nutracéutica, la cosmecéutica y la energética. Además, se concluyó que la bioindustria representa una oportunidad de negocio y también puede establecerse como una plataforma de modernización y competitividad para diversos sectores económicos del país.
