Extraction and purification of B-phycoerythrin from the red microalga Rhodosorus marinus

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2009
A description is given of the purification of B-phycoerythrin (B-PE) from the red microalga Rhodosorus marinus. Initially, phycobiliproteins were released from the microalgal cells by manual cellular fragmentation and sonication. B-PE was extracted with

Structural characteristics of phycobiliproteins from red alga Mazzaella japonica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We determined the primary structures of phycoerythrin (PE), phycocyanin (PC), and allophycocyanin (APC) from red alga Mazzaella japonica. The phycobiliproteins consist of a- and b- subunits like other red algae. M.

Phycobiliproteins from extreme environments and their potential applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The light harvesting phycobilisome complex is an important component of photosynthesis incyanobacteria and red algae. Phycobilisomes are composed of phycobiliproteins, includingthe blue phycobiliprotein phycocyanin, that are considered high value ...

Protective Effect of the Phycobiliproteins from Arthrospira maxima on Indomethacin-Induced Gastric Ulcer in a Rat Model

open access: yesPlants, 2023
Gastric ulcers (GU) constitute a disease with a global prevalence ≈ 8.09 million. Of their causes, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as indomethacin (IND) rank as the second most frequent etiologic agent.

Potential of Seaweed to Improve the Quality and Shelf Life of Fish and Fishery Products

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Growing global demand for safe fish preservation has increased interest in natural alternatives. Seaweed‐derived bioactive compounds possess antioxidant and antimicrobial properties that enhance fish quality, safety, and shelf life. These sustainable preservatives may reduce spoilage and synthetic preservative use, though further research ...

Effect of Spirulina platensis ingestion on the abnormal biochemical and oxidative stress parameters in the pancreas and liver of alloxan-induced diabetic rats

open access: yesPharmaceutical Biology, 2017
Context: Previous studies have shown that Spirulina platensis Gomont (Phormidiaceae) (SP) extract has beneficial effects on many disease conditions. The putative protective effects of SP were investigated in diabetic rats.

Near‐infrared confocal imaging reveals the spatial organisation of far‐red photosynthesis in Shark Bay microbial mats and Halomicronema sp.

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Far‐red light (FRL) cyanobacteria occupy spectrally filtered habitats where visible wavelengths are depleted but far‐red radiation persists. Shark Bay (Western Australia) stromatolitic microbial mats provide such a habitat, containing subsurface cyanobacterial communities in which chlorophyll d/f (Chl d/f)‐containing phototrophs coexist with ...
