Microorganisms in high-salinity environments play a critical role biogeochemical cycles, primary production, and the biotechnological exploitation of extremozymes bioactive compounds. The main challenges current research include isolating cultivating these microorganisms under laboratory conditions understanding their complex adaptive mechanisms to high salinity. Currently, universally recognized protocols for microalgae cyanobacteria from salt pans, salterns, similar natural habitats are lacking. Establishing axenic cultures is essential identifying new species thriving exploring synthesis high-value metabolites by ex situ. Our ongoing primarily focuses on photosynthetic with significant potential, particularly skincare applications. By integrating data existing literature our empirical findings, we propose standardized pipeline isolation cultivation originating aqueous characterized elevated concentrations, such as solar salterns. This approach will be useful researchers working adapted hypersaline waters.
