Our Nannochloropsis salina mother culture is a high-quality live microalgae starter culture designed for marine biotechnology and high-value compound production.

Nannochloropsis salina is a unicellular, non-motile marine microalga known for its high lipid accumulation potential, particularly rich in omega-3 fatty acids such as EPA. It is extensively used in aquaculture as a primary feed source for larvae and zooplankton, as well as in biofuel and nutraceutical industries. The species demonstrates strong adaptability to saline environments and maintains high productivity under controlled light and nutrient conditions.

This culture is maintained under sterile conditions to ensure high viability, purity, and consistent growth performance for both laboratory-scale and commercial-scale applications.
