Parameters of reflectance spectra in visible region and colorimetry for Blakeslea trispora biomass with different content of beta-carotene were determined. Correlation level of pigment accumulation and spectral characteristics were revealed. It is established, that objective control of color characteristics for biomass is possible using measurement of colorimetric parameters.
