DUNALIELLA MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

The global dunaliella market size was valued at approximately USD 0.11 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 0.11 billion by 2033, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of about -0.2% from 2025 to 2033.

A member of the algae family Dunaliellaceae is the genus Dunaliella. It is extensively dispersed across its natural habitat, which includes saltwater lakes and the ocean. Dunaliella is a naked, unicellular, bi-flagellate, green alga that measures 4–10 m in width and 6–15 m in length. It is the plant with the highest concentration of lycopene, alpha- and beta-carotene, zeaxanthin, lutein, cryptoxanthin, and other carotenoids. It also contains a lot of linolenic acid and other plentiful unsaturated fatty acids. As a result, the university is aware of the business value. The most common kind of Dunaliella sold in the market is Dunaliella Salina, which is sold as dried powder.

Despite being found in large numbers throughout the world's lakes and lagoons, species in this genus can accumulate significant amounts of -carotenoids and glycerol under extremely challenging growth conditions that include high light intensities, high salt concentrations, and limited oxygen and nitrogen levels. Because these organisms lack a cell wall, they are malleable and able to change shape, and because they have different pigments, they can change colour depending on their environment, making it challenging to distinguish and interpret species of this genus solely based on morphology or physiological characteristics. Molecular phylogeny research has emerged as a critical stage in the finding of taxonomy. This genus has been investigated for more than a century as a model organism for researching the processes involved in algal salt adaption. It has remained relevant because of its many biotechnological uses, including carotenoids in medicine, cosmetics, food, and fuel.

COVID-19 Impact: Delay in Logistics and Transportation Led to Hamper Market Growth

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with surface tensiometer market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels.

The COVID-19 epidemic has had a negative impact on several economies worldwide. Lockdowns and quarantines that were implemented countrywide as part of the government's response to the COVID-19 epidemic had a detrimental effect on several industries. Most food product firms in the F&B industry are still impacted by COVID-19. Due to delays in logistics and transportation, Dunaliella salina sales in the algae business significantly decreased. The supply of raw materials for culture media, as well as the production, packaging, and distribution of the finished Dunaliella salina biomass, were all interrupted in the market.

LATEST TRENDS

"Growing Demand for Naturally Sourced Beta Carotene Drives the Market Growth"

The antioxidant beta carotene, which comes from both natural and artificial sources, belongs to the family of compounds known as carotenoids. It is the primary reliable dietary source of vitamin A, which is necessary for healthy skin, epithelia, and vision as well as appropriate growth and development.

Compared to synthetic beta carotene, naturally obtained beta carotene has a number of benefits. Synthetic beta carotene has several drawbacks, including a lack of nutritional benefit, side effects, and increased risk of lung cancer and mortality. Key beta carotene extraction firms are currently creating carotene products from natural sources, such as algae, fruits, and vegetables, to overcome all these drawbacks. One of the best sources of natural beta carotene.
