Assessment of Marine Microalgae's Bioactive Extracts Potential for Food Applications. [PDF]
Mol Nutr Food ResExtracts were obtained from Dunaliella and Pavlova microalgae using water and ethanol as solvents, combined with bead milling and osmotic shock strategies. The extracts were characterised in terms of protein, pigments, and phenolic compounds, and their potential for food applications was evaluated.

Exploring the Potential of Microalgae as Feed Ingredients for Sustainable Aquaculture: A Review of Nutritional and Environmental Benefits. [PDF]
Aquac NutrThe increase and rapid population growth and higher demand for fish are driving the aquaculture industry to rapid expansion. One of the main challenges in aquaculture is to ensure sustainable feeds for fish in different aquaculture systems. Historically, aquafeed ingredients were fishmeal and fish oil, but the increase in price and the decrease in ...

Marine Ecology, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Microplastic input into the ocean represents an increasing threat to marine biota and may endanger the functioning of marine ecosystems, especially in semi‐enclosed basins, such as the Mediterranean Sea. The size spectrum of microplastics overlaps with that of nano‐microplankton (2–200 μm), thus potentially misleading suspension‐feeding ...
