In this work, we divided the absorption spectrum of the acetone extract of the Tetraselmis viridis microalgae by GPS into the spectra of individual pigments. The main pigments were lutein, neoxanthin chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b. In the culture spectrum, using the second-order derivative, individual absorption maxima were revealed. The data obtained are taken as a basis when compiling a model of the spectrum of native pigment forms. Models of native forms of chlorophyll a , chlorophyll b , and total photoprotective carotenoids are proposed. The obtained mathematical models of the absorption spectra of individual pigments and literature extinction coefficients can be used to quickly calculate the concentration of pigments in the culture.
