Advancing Fatty Acid Profiling in Microalgae: A Comparison of Greener Approaches and Enhanced Chromatographic Separation Versus Conventional Methods

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Lipid Science and Technology, Volume 128, Issue 3, March 2026.
Microalgae are a sustainable source of health‐promoting fatty acids, but conventional extraction methods are often slow and environmentally unfriendly. We developed greener and faster approaches, combined with advanced analysis, to better characterize their complex fatty acid profiles.

Investigation of the Migration Patterns for Nanoplastics With Different Sizes in Chlorella vulgaris and Their Effects on Heavy Metal Adsorption by the Microalgae

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
Smaller PS‐NPs penetrated Chlorella, while larger particles adhered to the cell surface. Post‐adsorption, Chlorella exhibited size‐specific alterations in membrane parameters. PS‐NPs of varying sizes differently altered Chlorella's adsorption capacity of heavy metals.

Unravelling Rheology and Structural Properties of Polysaccharides from Porphyridium Purpureum After Alkali Pre‐Treatment

open access: yesMacromolecular Bioscience, Volume 26, Issue 3, March 2026.
Porphyridium purpureum polysaccharides are established hydrocolloids among several microalgal biomolecules, however they only exhibit higher viscosity without gelling capacity. Therefore, this study chose to employ alkali pretreatment to Porphyridium purpureum to investigate whether controlled chemical modification could alter the molecular structure ...

Overexpression of an endogenous type 2 diacylglycerol acyltransferase in the marine diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum enhances lipid production and omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid content

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2020
Oleaginous microalgae represent a valuable resource for the production of high-value molecules. Considering the importance of omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs) for human health and nutrition the yields of high-value ...

Designing the Future of Food: Challenges to Innovation in Microalgae‐Derived Blue Protein Systems

open access: yesSustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 1, March 2026.
This image illustrates the key factors in protein extraction from microalgae, along with the main sustainability opportunities and associated risks. ABSTRACT Microalgae are emerging as promising sources of “blue proteins,” a term used to categorize aquatic proteins derived from marine and freshwater organisms.

The photosynthetic cytochrome c 550 from the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum

open access: yesPhotosynthesis Research, 2016
The photosynthetic cytochrome c 550 from the marine diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum has been purified and characterized. Cytochrome c 550 is mostly obtained from the soluble cell extract in relatively large amounts. In addition, the protein appeared to be truncated in the last hydrophobic residues of the C-terminus, both in the soluble cytochrome c ...

Microalgae Techno‐Functional Properties in Bread, Cookies, and Pasta Products: A Review

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Microalgae are gaining increasing attention in the food industry not only for their nutritional richness but also for their promising techno‐functional properties. Research shows that isolated compounds from microalgae exhibit excellent techno‐functional properties as emulsifiers and thickeners, sometimes outperforming commercial additives ...

RATE OF PHOSPHORUS UPTAKE BY PHAEODACTYLUM TRICORNUTUM

open access: yesThe Biological Bulletin, 1962
Portions of a phosphorus-deficient culture of Phaeodactylum tricornutum Bohlin were dispensed into fresh media containing phosphate concentrations from 8 to 80 µM. The instantaneous initial phosphate uptake rates were 12 to 24 x 10-17 mole/cell·min.
