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.

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 ...

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