Isochrysis galbana is a species of Haptophyta. It is the type species of the genus Isochrysis.[1] It is an outstanding food for various bivalve larvae and is now widely cultured for use in the bivalve aquaculture industry.[2] This unicellular is investigated for its high amount of fucoxanthin (18.23 mg/g dried sample).[3] The Isochrysis galbana extract is said to have certain cosmetic and hair-growth properties when using hexane, ethyl acetate, ethanol, water, methanol, or isopropanol as extractants.[4]I. galbana has a chloroplast, whose genome sequence has been published in 2020.[5]
