EVALUATION OF VARIOUS INORGANIC MEDIA FOR GROWTH AND BIOPIGMENTS OF DUNALIELLA SALINA
Dunaliella salina is a unicellular green microalga that is considered as one of the best commercial sources of carotenoids. Growth and pigment production of lessThan i greaterThan D. salina lessThan /i greaterThan (isolated from Sambhar Salt Lake, Rajasthan) was studied by using various inorganic media differing in chemical compositions viz. Artificial Sea Water media, De Walne's media, Johnson's media, AS-100 and Modified Bold's Basal media. The best growth with highest pigment production was observed in the artificial sea water medium as compared to other media.
