Water samples were collected from naturally occurring algal blooms in solar salt pans used for sea salt extraction at Mossoró/RN, Brazil. The collection was authorized and did not involve endangered or protected species. Isolation steps were carried out as described in Hadi et al. (2016), using modified J/L medium (NaCl: 34.3 gL-1; MgCl2: 1.51 gL-1; MgSO4: 0.52 gL-1; KCl: 0.206 gL-1; CaCl2: 0.203 gL-1; KNO3: 1.0 gL-1; NaHCO3: 0.044 gL-1; KH2PO4: 0.045 gL-1) (Sathasivam & Juntawong, 2013). Axenic microalgae cultures of Dunaliella viridis EMBRAPA| LBA#S001 strain were deposited in the collection of Microorganisms and Microalgae of agroenergy and biorefinaries interest of EMBRAPA Agroenergy (Brasília/DF, Brazil).
