Microalgae are a source of numerous compounds that can be used in many branches of
industry. Synthesis of such compounds in microalgal cells can be amplified under stress …

Contamination by heavy metals including As, Cd, Co, Cu, Fe, Hg, Mn, Ni and Zn in
agricultural fields is a global safety issue. Indeed, excessive accumulations of metals have …

Silver nanoparticles (AgNP) are likely to enter the aquatic environment because of their
multiple uses. We have examined the short-term toxicity of AgNP and ionic silver (Ag+) to …

Heavy metals (HMs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are toxic components of
atmospheric particles. These pollutants induce a wide variety of responses in plants, leading …

Micro-and nanoplastics derived from environmental degradation of larger plastic debris can
be ingested and accumulate in aquatic organisms, raising growing global ecological …

Heavy metal pollution is one of the most serious problems facing the world today. Given their
toxicity and persistence in the environment, the treatment of these pollutants is of great …

Aquatic organisms, such as microalgae (Chlorella, Arthrospira (Spirulina), Tetrasselmis,
Dunalliela etc.) and duckweed (Lemna spp., Wolffia spp. etc.) are a potential source for the …

Phytochelatins (PCs) are enzymatically synthesized peptides known to involve in heavy
metal detoxification and accumulation, which have been measured in plants grown at high …

An important challenge in environmental biogeochemistry is the determination of the
bioavailability of toxic and essential trace compounds in natural media. For trace metals, it is …

We used hairy nanocrystalline cellulose functionalized with aldehyde groups, otherwise
known as sterically stabilized nanocrystalline cellulose (SNCC), to facilitate the attachment …
