Extracting protein from microalgae (Tetraselmis chuii) for proteome analysis

MethodsX, 2022
Microalgae have high potential as a resource for sustainable and green protein for food or bioactive molecules. Nonetheless, despite the high protein content of microalgae (40 - 70% dry weight) progress in the characterization of their protein composition remains challenging. This is due to the highly variable chemical composition of microalgae strains

Drivers of metabolic density‐dependence: how resource availability and conspecific cues affect phytoplankton metabolism

Oikos, EarlyView.
Metabolism is density‐dependent from unicellular to multicellular organisms. Understanding what drives metabolic suppression is important to explain population growth given the link between metabolism and biomass production. In the simplest scenario, metabolic suppression is caused by a reduction in resource availability with increasing population ...
