Abstract

In the present study, the effect of NaCl on Secondary Metabolites of Chlorella vulgaris Beijerink was investigated. The C. vulgaris was treated with different concentrations of NaCl viz., 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4M besides control over 10, 20 and 30 days. The results exhibited maximum increase in the Phenol, Flavonoid and Alkaloid up to 0.3 M for all the cultures over all the durations. The study revealed that, increased activity of Phenol, Flavonoid and Alkaloid content may provide a strategy to enhance salt tolerance and protection against oxidative damage.
