Abstract Twelve hyper-? carotene-producing strains of algae assigned to the genus Dunaliella salina have been isolated from various hypersaline environments in Israel, South Africa, Namibia and Spain. Intron-sizing SSU rDNA phylogenetic analysis these isolates were undertaken using four commonly employed markers for genotyping, LSU rDNA, ITS, rbc L tuf A their application study evaluated. Novel...

The metabolic regulation of membrane lipid composition has been examined using the cell wall-less, unicellular green alga Dunaliella salina (UTEX 1644) as a model system. Low temperature stress was employed to initiate and study the regulatory response.When cultures growing logarithmically at 30 degrees C were chilled to 12 degrees C, cell division ceased for approximately 100 hours, and then t...

Abstract Purpose Dunaliella is a halophilic genus of microalgae with high potential in the global food market. The microalgal cultivation process contributes to not only economic impact but also environmental impact, especially regarding artificial medium composition. In this context, life cycle assessment was carried out analyze impacts associated components modified Johnson (MJM) and predict ...
