Vision in microalgae

Planta, 1997
Flagellate green algae such as Chlamydomonas and related genera are guided by their eyes to places where light conditions are optimal for photosynthetic growth. These eyes constitute the simplest and most common visual system found in nature. The eyes contain optics, photoreceptors and the elementary components of a signal-transduction chain. Rhodopsin

Marine Microalgae

2005
Marine microalgae, the largest primary biomass, have been attracting attention as resources for new metabolites and biotechnologically useful genes. The diversified marine environment harbors a large variety of microalgae. In this paper, the biotechnological aspects and fundamental characteristics of marine microalgae are reviewed.

Immobilization of Microalgae

2006
Several microalgae synthesize metabolites of great commercial interest. Microalgae also act as filters for wastewater N and P, heavy metals, and xenobiotic compounds. However, the cost-effective harvesting of microalgae is one of the major bottlenecks limiting the microalgal biomass applications.

Transgenic microalgae as bioreactors

Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition, 2019
Microalgae are unicellular organisms that act as the crucial primary producers all over the world, typically found in marine and freshwater environments. Most of them can live photo-autotrophically, reproduce rapidly, and accumulate biomass in a short period efficiently.

Photobioreactors for the production of microalgae

2017
Microalgae have a large biotechnological potential for producing valuable substances for feed, food, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical industries . Furthermore, other applications can be attributed to the photosynthetic process performed by these microorganisms such as CO2 mitigation, wastewater treatment, and biofuels production. Whatever the process,

The Physiology of Microalgae

2016
This book covers the state-of-the-art of microalgae physiology and biochemistry (and the several –omics). It serves as a key reference work for those working with microalgae, whether in the lab, the field, or for commercial applications. It is aimed at new entrants into the field (i.e. PhD students) as well as experienced practitioners.
