Over‐Expression of a Phycocyanin‐Interferon Fusion and Differential Cleaving Efficiency in Cyanobacteria (Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803)

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, Volume 123, Issue 3, Page 752-762, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Recombinant protein expression in heterologous biological systems is an expanding field in synthetic biology. Photosynthetic organisms have the potential to provide an efficient low‐cost platform for recombinant protein production because they require minimal growth nutrients and are less susceptible to zoonotic and other contaminants ...

Dietary Spirulina Ameliorates Arsenic‐Induced Toxicity in Nile Tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 2, March 2026.
Arsenic contamination poses serious risks to Nile tilapia by reducing growth, feed efficiency and haemoglobin, while elevating blood glucose and muscle arsenic levels. This 56‐day feeding trial evaluated the protective role of spirulina (20 g/kg) under varying arsenic exposure.

Synechococcus Under Stress: Contrasting Physiological and Transcriptional Responses to Salinity and Temperature in Marine Versus Euryhaline Strains

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
Two model strains of Synechococcus sp.—the marine RS9907 and the euryhaline WH5701—exhibit distinct physiological responses to salinity after long acclimations at optimal and cold growth temperatures. Transcriptomic and photochemical analyses reveal drastic differences in their regulatory strategies and photosynthetic activity across a salinity ...

The beneficial impacts of dietary phycocyanin supplementation on growing rabbits under high ambient temperature

, 2020
A total of 120 growing rabbits (7-weeks old) reared under high ambient temperature were divided into four equal groups, 30 rabbits each. The first group was received a basal diet without Phycocyanin (PC) (0 g/kg diet) and served as a control (PC0).
