High CO2 decreases the long-term resilience of the free-living coralline algae Phymatolithon lusitanicum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Maerl/rhodolith beds are protected habitats that may be affected by ocean acidification (OA), but it is still unclear how the availability of CO2 will affect the metabolism of these organisms.

Temperature and nutrient responses of three red algae: Implications for species rotation in land‐based aquaculture

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Land‐based Integrated Multi‐Trophic Aquaculture (IMTA) offers a sustainable production model, but its economic viability is often limited by seasonal fluctuations in temperature and nutrient loads, which hinder consistent year‐round biomass production.

Antimicrobial and Cytotoxic Activities of Biogenic Nanoparticles Produced by Cyanobacteria

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 5, 13 March 2026.
The article reviews the green synthesis of biogenic nanoparticles produced by cyanobacteria, highlighting their antimicrobial and cytotoxic properties. These nanoparticles, formed intra‐ or extracellularly, show activity against Gram‐positive and Gram‐negative bacteria as well as fungi and can induce apoptosis in tumor cells.

Commercial Applications of Microalgae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The first use of microalgae by humans dates back 2000 years to the Chinese, who used Nostoc to survive during famine. However, microalgal biotechnology only really began to develop in the middle of the last century.

R-phycocyanin II, a new phycocyanin occurring in marine Synechococcus species. Identification of the terminal energy acceptor bilin in phycocyanins.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1987
A new member of the phycocyanin family of phycobiliproteins, R-phycocyanin II (R-PC II) has been discovered in several strains of marine Synechococcus sp. R-PC II has absorption maxima at 533 and 554 nm, a subsidiary maximum at 615 nm, and a fluorescence emission maximum at 646 nm.

Transcriptome Analysis of Phycocyanin-Mediated Inhibitory Functions on Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer A549 Cell Growth

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2018
Phycocyanin (PC), derived from cyanobacteria and Spirulina cells, is a type of natural antineoplastic marine protein. It has been reported that phycocyanin exerts an antitumor function in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells, but the underlying ...
