Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) have been widely employed in industrial applications, thus rising concern about their impact in the aquatic environment. In this study we investigated the chemical behaviour of TiO2 NPs in the culture medium and its effect on the green alga Dunaliella tertiolecta, in terms of growth inhibition, oxidative stress,

Effect of sulfate availability on phytoplankton stoichiometry
Abstract Sulfur (S) is a key element in multiple metabolic pathways of phytoplankton cells. The effect of S availability on phytoplankton elemental quotas and stoichiometry has been addressed in few studies, using a limited number of species and with contradictory results.

The Use of Flocculation as a Preconcentration Step in the Microalgae Harvesting Process
ABSTRACT Flocculation is a widely utilized separation technique in colloid chemistry, the chemical industry, and wastewater treatment. However, its application in microalgal biomass production and downstream processing remains limited. Biomass harvesting represents a significant cost factor in large‐scale microalgae production, with the separation of ...

Enhancing Lipid Production of Dunaliella tertiolecta by Manipulating the Interactive Effect of Salinity and Nitrogen [PDF]
Low lipid yield is a major bottleneck towards the scale-up application of microalgae for biodiesel production. The focus of this study was to improve the lipid production of Dunaliella tertiolecta (a marine microalga) by altering the ...

Two Isoforms of Dihydroxyacetone Phosphate Reductase from the Chloroplasts of Dunaliella tertiolecta [PDF]
Three isoforms of dihydroxyacetone phosphate reductase in extracts from Dunaliella tertiolecta have been separated by a diethylaminoethyl cellulose column chromatography with a shallow NaCl gradient. The chloroplasts contained the two major isoforms, and the third, minor form was in the cytosol.
