Highly Efficient CRISPR-Associated Protein 9 Ribonucleoprotein-Based Genome Editing in Euglena gracilis

STAR Protocols, 2020
Summary Euglena gracilis, a unicellular phytoflagellate microalga, is a promising biomaterial for foods, feeds, and biofuels. However, targeted mutagenesis in this species has been a long-standing challenge. We recently developed a transgene-free, highly

The application of Fresnel zone plate based projection in optofluidic microscopy [PDF]

, 2008
Optofluidic microscopy (OFM) is a novel technique for low-cost, high-resolution on-chip microscopy imaging. In this paper we report the use of the Fresnel zone plate (FZP) based projection in OFM as a cost-effective and compact means for projecting the ...

Effects of Euglena gracilis Intake on Mood and Autonomic Activity under Mental Workload, and Subjective Sleep Quality: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial

Nutrients, 2020
While the human body maintains homeostasis by altering the balance in the autonomic nervous, endocrine, and immune systems, a prolonged imbalance in these systems can result in physical and mental symptoms, including a decline in sleep quality and work ...

Ultrastructural Alterations in Lepocinclis acus (Euglenophyta) Induced by Medium with High Organic Matter Content [PDF]

, 2017
Ultrastructural changes induced by exposure to excess of organic matter were studied in Lepocinclis acus (ex Euglena acus). The cells isolated from the Matanza River, Buenos Aires, Argentina, were grown in soil water medium (SWM).

Barriers Impeding Active Mixing of Swimming Microbes in a Hyperbolic Flow

Frontiers in Physics, 2022
We present experiments on the motion of swimming microbes in a laminar, hyperbolic flow. We test a theory that predicts the existence of swimming invariant manifolds (SwIMs) that act as invisible, one-way barriers that block the motion of the microbes ...
