Characteristic
Dunaliella salina is a motile unicellular alga belonging to the class Chlorophyceae. It is a carotene-producing microalgae, known for its high capacity to accumulate valuable β-carotene. Under extreme environmental conditions, such as high light intensity, nutrient deficiency, high salinity, and extreme temperatures, Dunaliella salina can accumulate β-carotene to about 10% of the cell dry weight. Dunaliella salina is considered one of the most important species for commercial production due to the presence of β-carotene and other active compounds such as lutein, zeaxanthin, chlorophyll, and polyunsaturated fatty acids. At present, it has developed various potential applications in the pharmaceutical, health, food and energy industries.
