Dunaliella salina is a type of halophile green micro-algae especially found in sea salt fields. Known for its antioxidantactivity because of its ability to create large amount of carotenoids, it is used in cosmetics and dietary supplements. Few organisms can survive like D. salina does in such highly saline conditions as salt evaporation ponds. To survive, these organisms have high concentrations of β-carotene to protect against the intense light, and high concentrations of glycerolto provide protection against osmotic pressure. This offers an opportunity for commercial biological production of these substances.

Product description:
Beta carotene is the molecule that gives carrots their orange
colour. Beta carotene is part of a family of
chemicals called the carotenoids, which are found in many fruit and
vegetables, as well as some animal
products such as egg yolks. Biologically, beta carotene is most
important as the precursor of vitamin A.
Beta carotene also has anti-oxidant properties and may help in
preventing cancer and other diseases.
Beta carotene is also known as a provitamin because it can be
converted in our body into vitamin A after
oxidative cleavage by beta carotene 15, 150 dioxygenase. In plants,
beta carotene acts as
an anti-oxidant and neutralizes singlet oxygen radicals formed
during photosynthesis.
