A switch from a petroleum-based to a biobased economy requires the capacity to produce
both high-value low-volume and low-value high-volume products. Recent evidence supports …

Traditionally, trophic ecology research on aquatic ecosystems has focused more on the
quantity of dietary energy flow within food webs rather than food quality and its effects on …

In this research investigation, three microalgal species were screened (Pleurosigma sp.,
Amphora sp., and Amphiprora sp.) for lipid content before choosing the potential microalgae …

Polystyrene (PS) often found in the ocean is one of the most commonly used plastic
polymers in the world and can exist in different particle sizes. In particular, PS degrades …

Large-scale microalgal biomass production usually relies on concentrated CO 2 as the
carbon source which is a major logistical and economic challenge because of the required …

Although algae are often grown at pH values between 6 and 8, shifting to more alkali or
acidic conditions may benefit CO 2 delivery to algal cultures. To assess the impact of culture …

Haslea ostrearia is a pennate diatom that produces marennine, a water-soluble blue
pigment responsible for the greening phenomenon and the increase of organoleptic quality …

Microalgae are being considered as a promising raw material for biofuel production.
However, rapid, efficient, and economic technologies for harvesting microalgae are …

The fatty acids (FA) of Ulva have potential to contribute to nutrition. However the large
variability of FA profiles of Ulva species; thus the quality and quantity of FA in relation to …

We studied how ecological factors affect species composition and structure of soil algal
assemblages in different types of mountain tundra and sparse forests in the Northern Urals …
