A Novel Adaptation Mechanism Underpinning Algal Colonization of a Nuclear Fuel Storage Pond

mBio, 2018
Geochemical analyses alongside molecular techniques were used to characterize the microbial ecology and biogeochemistry of an outdoor spent nuclear fuel storage pond at Sellafield, United Kingdom, that is susceptible to seasonal algal blooms that cause ...

Microalgae as a Novel Therapy for Chronic Wound Healing

International Wound Journal, Volume 23, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Chronic wounds pose a substantial global health challenge, marked by persistent inflammation, infection, hypoxia, and impaired tissue regeneration. Traditional oxygen‐based therapies, including hyperbaric and topical oxygen treatments, often suffer from limited efficacy, high costs, restricted accessibility, and difficulties in achieving ...

Equilibrium Modeling of Astaxanthin Extraction from Haematococcus pluvialis

Indonesian Journal of Chemistry, 2021
Astaxanthin is a natural antioxidant, and the highest content of this compound is found in Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae. Microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) is one of the environmentally friendly extraction methods and has many advantages. This study aims to investigate the extraction of astaxanthin through the MAE method using various solvents ...

Freshwater and Sediment Host Distinct Yet Overlapping Microeukaryotic Communities, With Sediment Communities Less Impacted by Treated Wastewater

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Freshwater and sediment environments host diverse microeukaryotic communities that differ in structure and composition, yet exhibit taxonomic overlap. Using 18S V9 rRNA gene sequencing, we compared communities from these habitats in controlled 10‐day mesocosm experiments, examining diversity, overlap, and responses to treated wastewater (TWW).

Organization of astaxanthin within oil bodies of Haematococcus pluvialis studied with polarization-dependent harmonic generation microscopy. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Nonlinear optical microscopy was used to image the localization of astaxanthin accumulation in the green alga, Haematococcus pluvialis. Polarization-in, polarization-out (PIPO) second harmonic generation (SHG) and third harmonic generation (THG ...

Modeling of Biomass Production of Haematococcus pluvialis

Applied Mathematics, 2013
Microalgae cultivation is justified by the production of high-value fine chemicals and biofuels, essential to reduce the emissions of gases that cause global warming. This paper presents a study of the growth of microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis considering light conditions from 2000 to 10,000 lux, temperature 22?C and pH in the 6.5-12.5 range.

The Effects of Different Light Spectra, UV and Extreme Temperature on the Physiology of Endosymbiotic Jellyfish Cassiopea andromeda

Marine Ecology, Volume 47, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT The endosymbiotic jellyfish Cassiopea andromeda represents a yet untapped marine species that could be targeted as a new source for bioproducts, including food and feed. Also, the potential use of contained valuable ingredients, such as carotenoids and other antioxidants, under controlled aquaculture conditions might be a particularly ...

Biolistic Transformation of Haematococcus pluvialis With Constructs Based on the Flanking Sequences of Its Endogenous Alpha Tubulin Gene

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Haematococcus pluvialis has high commercial value, yet it displays low development of genetic transformation systems. In this research, the endogenous 5′ and 3′ flanking sequences of the constitutive alpha tubulin (tub) gene were cloned along with its ...

Synthetic Biology and Metabolic Engineering of Microalgae for Sustainable Lipid and Terpenoid Production: An Updated Perspective

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1359-1376, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Microalgae are increasingly recognised as powerful platforms for the sustainable production of lipids and terpenoids, with expanding applications in the food, fuel and biomanufacturing industries. In this updated review, we consolidate and critically assess the most recent advances in synthetic biology and metabolic engineering of key ...
