The production of accurate and reliable data on copper ecotoxicology of marine algae
depends on the use of trace metal clean techniques during experimentation. We reviewed …

Seawater desalination via reverse osmosis (SWRO) is highlighted as one of the most
feasible solutions for obtaining freshwater. However, brine produced by SWRO is generally …

Background In recent years, the concern of Acanthamoeba keratitis has increased since the
infection is often associated with contact lens use. Partial 18S rRNA genotypic identification …

Copper (Cu) is an essential metal involved in many physiological processes of living
organisms. However, beyond a certain threshold, Cu can become highly toxic. For instance …

There is scarce investigation addressing interpopulation tolerance responses to address the
influence of a history of chronic stress exposure, as that occurring in polluted environments …

Following the physiological complementary/parallel Celis-Plá et al., by inhibiting
extracellular signal regulated kinases (ERK), c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNK), and cytokinin …

We have tested Ulva lactuca Linnaeus as a metal biomonitor by measuring the
concentrations of metals copper (Cu), cadmium (Cd), zinc (Zn), and mercury (Hg) in its …

Copper in low natural concentrations is essential for cell metabolism but in excess it
becomes extremely toxic to aquatic life, including to the early life stages of marine …

The existence of functional Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) channels was analyzed in
Ectocarpus siliculosus using agonists of human TRPs and specific antagonists of TRPA1 …

Abstract The Antarctic Peninsula is one of the regions to be most affected by increase in sea
surface temperatures (SSTs) mediated by Global Climate Change; indeed, most negative …
