Inclusion of photoautotrophic cultivated diatom biomass in salmon feed can deter lice.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of diatom (microalgae) biomass as a lice-reducing ingredient in salmon feed. The original hypothesis was based on the fact that polyunsaturated aldehydes (PUAs), e.g.

Integrative effects of morphology, silicification, and light on diatom vertical movements

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Diatoms represent the most abundant and diversified class of primary producers in present oceans; their distinctive trait is the ability to incorporate silicic acid in a silica outer shell called frustule.

A Simple and Inexpensive Method to Gain Diatom Absolute Abundances from Permanent Mounts in Hydrobiological and Paleoecological Research

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Here, we describe and discuss a method based on microscopical field of view (FOV) area to estimate diatom absolute abundances (densities or concentrations), and we statistically verify its reliability, also comparing it to another commonly used method ...

Phylogenetic analysis and a review of the history of the accidental phytoplankter, Phaeodactylum tricornutum Bohlin (Bacillariophyta). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
The diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum has been used as a model for cell biologists and ecologists for over a century. We have incorporated several new raphid pennates into a three gene phylogenetic dataset (SSU, rbcL, psbC), and recover Gomphonemopsis sp.

Diversity of Diatom Communities in Delaware Tidal Wetland and Their Relationship to Water Quality

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2018
Diatoms are strongly influenced by water quality and serve as indicators of water quality degradation in freshwater systems. Here, sediment and water samples were collected from four sites in Blackbird Creek, DE, a salt marsh characterized as mostly ...

Responses of Marine Diatom-Dinoflagellate Competition to Multiple Environmental Drivers: Abundance, Elemental, and Biochemical Aspects

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Ocean-related global change has strongly affected the competition between key marine phytoplankton groups, such as diatoms and dinoflagellates, especially with the deleterious consequency of the increasing occurrence of harmful algal blooms.

Photo‐Switchable Molecular Module Programming PET Biodegradation in Aquatic Environments

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We address the plastic durability paradox by integrating an itaconic acid–derived pyrrolidone module into polymer backbones. Sunlight in water triggers Norrish Type I ring‐opening and hydrophilization, enabling rapid biodegradation into nontoxic minerals.

Dental Microwear Texture Analysis on Radular Teeth

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
3D microwear textures reveal how gastropod radular teeth respond to controlled abrasive contact. Distinct surface signatures distinguish regular abrasion from fracture‐dominated material removal, showing how mineralized coatings, fibrous cores, and substrate properties jointly shape wear and failure in a biological scraping interface.
