An ever increasing demand of fuels has been a challenge for today's scientific workers. The
fossil fuel resources are dwindling day by day. Biodiesel seems to be a solution for future …

Microalgae of numerous heterotrophic genera (obligate or facultative) exhibit considerable
metabolic versatility and flexibility but are currently underexploited in the biotechnological …

The commercial culture of microalgae is now over 30 years old with the main microalgal
species grown being Chlorella and Spirulina for health food, Dunaliella salina for β …

The aim of the study was to obtain high quality biodiesel production from a microalga
Chlorella protothecoids through the technology of transesterification. The technique of …

The algae are a polyphyletic, artificial assemblage of O 2-evolving, photosynthetic
organisms (and secondarily nonphotosynthetic evolutionary descendants) that includes …

Cultivation of microalgae using natural and man-made open-ponds istechnologically simple,
but not necessary cheap due to the high downstream processing cost. Products of …

Food waste constitutes a significant portion of waste in the world. Indeed, it is estimated that
about one-third of edible human food is wasted globally. Anaerobic digestion has been …

In yeast, telomere position effect (TPE) results in the reversible silencing of genes near
telomeres. Here we demonstrate the presence of TPE in human cells. HeLa clones …

▪ Abstract The structure of the familiar antioxidant l-ascorbic acid (vitamin C) was described
in 1933 yet remarkably, its biosynthesis in plants remained elusive until only recently. It …

The uses of algae have been recognized for centuries and include human food from blue-
green and green algae, soda ash, iodine and alginic acid from brown algae, and agar and …
