A New Era for Using Natural Pigments: The Case of the C50 Carotenoid Called Bacterioruberin
ABSTRACT Haloarchaea are extremophilic microorganisms belonging to the Archaea domain that require high salt concentrations to live, thus inhabiting ecosystems like salty ponds, salty marshes, or extremely salty lagoons. They are more abundant and widely distributed worldwide than initially expected.

Abstract Oil sands tailings ponds, such as those in northeastern Alberta, present environmental challenges due to slow sedimentation, water entrapment, and toxic naphthenic acids (NAs), which hinder water reclamation. This study assessed the tolerance and biodegradation potential of Chlorella vulgaris (C.

Effect of Ca2+ channel block on glycerol metabolism in Dunaliella salina under hypoosmotic and hyperosmotic stresses. [PDF]
The effect of Ca(2+) channel blockers on cytosolic Ca(2+) levels and the role of Ca(2+) in glycerol metabolism of Dunaliella salina under hypoosmotic or hyperosmotic stress were investigated using the confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM).

Abstract The vision of using microalgae to obtain organic chemicals in a carbon‐neutral manner is intriguing. It promises to produce various substances including biofuels by photosynthesis, without competing with agricultural land. Processes have been established whereby microalgae undergo a growth phase followed by a stress phase, which induces lipid ...

In-situ disinfection and a new downstream processing scheme from algal harvesting to lipid extraction using ozone-rich microbubbles for biofuel production [PDF]
The scaling up and downstream processing costs of biofuels from microalgae are major concerns. This study focuses on reducing the cost by using energy efficient methods in the production of microalgae biomass and the downstream processes (biomass ...

Designing the Future of Food: Challenges to Innovation in Microalgae‐Derived Blue Protein Systems
This image illustrates the key factors in protein extraction from microalgae, along with the main sustainability opportunities and associated risks. ABSTRACT Microalgae are emerging as promising sources of “blue proteins,” a term used to categorize aquatic proteins derived from marine and freshwater organisms.
