Metabolic responses and β-carotene production by the unicellular green alga Dunaliella salina exposed to leaf extracts

Metabolic responses and β-carotene production by the unicellular green alga Dunaliella salina exposed to leaf extracts

ABSTRACT The present work investigated the effects of aqueous extracts of eucalyptus ( Eucalyptus globulus) and elderberry ( Sambucus ebulus) leaves on β-carotene productivity in Dunaliella salina, a green microalga.
