Abstract Microalgae have garnered a considerable attention as a sustainable substitute as customary feed ingredients for poultry, predominantly due to their extraordinary nutritive profile and purposeful properties. Thes...

Algae biofuels is considered as an alternative source to fossil fuels. In recent ‎decades, there was a ‎significant increase in the use of energy sources in order ‎to avoid the depletion of traditional ‎sources s...

The widespread use of antibiotics, coupled with the inadequate removal efficiency of these substances by traditional wastewater treatment methods, has resulted in the global presence of antibiotics at varying concentrati...

The increasing trend of healthy awareness demands nutrient-rich food consumption, for instance, processed with no gluten. This research focused on developing gluten-free pasta utilizing a composite blend of brown rice, s...

Microalgae are promising platforms for CO2 mitigation. However, high CO2 exposure can impose physiological and environmental constraints, such as acidification and disruption of cellular homeostasis, which impair sensiti...

The extensive reliance on fossil resources for fuels and platform chemicals has raised critical concerns over resource depletion and increasing greenhouse gas emissions. To address these challenges, microalgae offer a pr...

Microalgae are producer organisms that have been used as bioindicators since the 19th century. Microalgae are characterized by their rapid reproduction, short life cycle, and easy collection. Although their...

Arsenic (As) is a toxic metalloid, and its accumulation in macroalgae has raised concerns for aquatic ecosystem health and human food safety given the increasing consumption of macroalgae. While previous studies have pre...

BackgroundMetabolic syndrome (MetS) affects approximately 1.54 billion adults worldwide and is characterized by central obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. Chronic low-grade inflammation is cen...

ABSTRACT The inexistence of nutritionally adequate diets in paralarval rearing is the main bottleneck for commercial production of the common octopus Octopus cf. vulgaris. We report the feeding behavior of O. vulgaris Ty...

Abstract The increasing discharge of untreated wastewater poses risks to ecosystems and public health, necessitating sustainable treatment strategies. Anaerobic digestion (AD) of sewage sludge offers several benefits inc...

RESUMO The biostimulating potential of algae extracts represents an opportunity to increase efficiency in food production. Cultivable microalgae are viable candidates due to the high production capacity. In this work, th...

Milk and dairy products have long played a central role in human nutrition due to their rich content of essential nutrients and bioactive compounds. The growing interest in functional foods—offering health benefits bey...

La creciente preocupación mundial por la escasez de combustibles fósiles, el aumento de los requerimientos energéticos y la protección del ambiente han llevado a la búsqueda de materias primas alternativas. En este...

The valorization of carbon dioxide (CO₂)-rich streams is emerging as a key pillar of a circular, climate-neutral bioeconomy. Biological platforms such as microalgae cultivation, anaerobic fermentation and microbial pol...

This study aimed to identify taxa belonging to the genera Monoraphidium and Ankistrodesmus (Chlorophyceae, Chlorophyta) in two wetland areas of Pantanal dos Marimbus (Baiano and Remanso) in the Marimbus-Iraquara Environm...

Abstract Background Sodium fluoride (F) is ubiquitously present in the environment and affects animals’ and humans’ health. Nannochloropsis oculata (NO) is a microalga that contains bioactive components with a prefer...

The oleaginous unicellular microalga Haematococcus pluvialis is being intensely studied as a source of carotenoids and lipids with potential biotechnological and biomedical applications. The aim of this study was to anal...

The mechanisms behind phytoplankton diversity patterns in natural ecosystems still remain elusive. In two shallow lakes with contrasting river connectivity, we first explored how diversity within each sampling (alfa dive...

ABSTRACT The objective of the present study was to evaluate production and egg quality as well as the intestinal morphometry of laying hens fed diets supplemented with marine microalga Dunaliella salina. Six hundred layi...

Abstract One of the biggest challenges in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine is to ensure oxygen supply of cells in the (temporary) absence of vasculature. With the vision to exploit photosynthetic oxygen produ...

Las planicies de marea son ambientes de escasa pendiente conformados por sedimentos finos no consolidados que se desarrollan sobre costas protegidas. En esta tesis se aborda el estudio de las comunidades bentónicas de...

During the last years, microorganisms (yeasts, fungi, microalgae and bacteria) have been receiving increasing attention as alternative lipid sources (also called single cells oils). Some lipid-accumulating bacteria, in p...

Los procesos biogeoquímicos relacionados con la dinámica de nutrientes, isótopos estables, ácidos grasos marcadores y el plancton fueron estudiados en un lago salino de la Pampa Argentina. El amonio fue el compuest...
