Some microalgae are recognized for producing pigments and other metabolites with biotechnological importance, particularly, Dunaliella salina is a remarkable one. These kind of compounds are used as food and have a great industrial potential. The pigment industry comprises a millionaire market value, being Î²-carotene one of the most profitable one. In this study we describe the morphology, molecular identification, growth dynamics, proximal composition, nutrients and pigment content of a recently isolated Dunaliella salina strain (SQ) under different salinity/light conditions, in order to highlight its remarkable properties for biotech/biomed industry. D. salina SQ reached the highest densities (1.07-1.25 cell mL-1 x106) at low salinities (100-500 mM NaCl) under continuous light regimen (24:0 h Light:Dark). Neoxanthin (Neo) and violaxanthin (Viol) were the most abundant pigments when exposed to 500 mM NaCl (18:6 h Light:Dark). Furthermore, this peculiar strain produces other compounds with high industrial value.
