Benthic microalgae community response to flooding in a tropical salt flat
Brazilian Journal of BiologyThis research evaluated the effect of flooding on the microphytobenthos community structure in a microbial mat from a tropical salt flat. Field samples were collected during four consecutive days: on the first three days the salt flat was dry, on the ...

Determination of nano and microplastic particles in hypersaline lakes by multiple methods
, 2021 Microplastics and nanoplastics have a range of impacts on the aquatic environment and present major challenges to their mitigation and management. Their transport and fate depend on their composition, form, and the characteristics of the receiving ...

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.

Hypersaline Microbial Self-Powered Biosensor with Increased Sensitivity [PDF]
, 2018 The on-line, self-powered monitoring of the organic carbon content in hypersaline solutions (e.g. chemical oxygen demand, COD) based on a microbial biosensor would avoid the generation of toxic waste, originated by common COD analytical methods, and ...

Asking the 5 W's for designing next‐generation bioprocessing
AIChE Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Biotechnology is expanding beyond traditional, centralized fermentation and toward next‐generation bioprocessing paradigms that emphasize flexible deployment outside the laboratory with application‐specific performance. However, many bioprocesses fail to translate beyond proof‐of‐concept into industrially viable systems because early design ...
