DUNALINA is a biomarine ingredient obtained from Dunaliella salina, an extremophilic microalga from the Mediterranean Sea, recognized for its extraordinary ability to adapt to hypersalinity conditions (up to 35%) and high solar radiation. It is the only photosynthetic eukaryotic organism capable of thriving in highly concentrated saline waters, thanks to physiological mechanisms that allow it to survive in extremely demanding environments.
As a self-protection strategy, Dunaliella salina synthesizes metabolites of high biological value, notably carotenoids (especially β-carotene) and glycerol, key compounds that protect against oxidative stress and dehydration. DUNALINA is obtained through an innovative eco-extraction process, designed to maximize the preservation of these bioactive compounds while respecting the environment, resulting in a sustainable and 100% natural active ingredient for cosmetic formulations.
