Algal biology and biofuel production

The growing interest in low-carbon energy systems has led to increased study on microalgae as a high-yield, land-efficient bioresource. Although photobioreactors (PBRs) are controlled systems for algal cultivation, lighting limitations remain a significant issue in system performance. Understanding light attenuation m…

), with its high protein content and rich micronutrient profile, has emerged as a promising candidate for this purpose. This review systematically evaluates the chemical composition, bioactive components, and potential health benefits relevant to food applications, drawing on peer-reviewed studies from 2015-2025. Spir…

ABSTRACT This study aims to develop and evaluate a microalgae‐based phytoremediation strategy for microplastic (MP) removal from surface waters, whereas enabling biofuel production within a circular‐economy framework, using the Ergene River Basin (Türkiye) as a case study. The novelty of this study lies in coupling MP…

A wound is defined as disruption or destruction of tissue integrity. In order to support healing in wound management, a good wound bed free of necrotic tissue and infection is desired, but intensive chemical antiseptics will cause cell destruction and delay healing. In order for wound healing to be rapid, the nature a…

Rising environmental stressors, including climate change, nutrient loading, pollution, and anthropogenic impacts, have made the continuous monitoring of lake water quality increasingly essential. While in situ methods offer high precision, satellite-based remote sensing is essential for capturing large-scale, long-ter…

Global fish oil production has plateaued while salmonid aquaculture expands, creating urgent demand for sustainable alternative lipid sources. This study evaluated the effects of replacing dietary fish oil with canola oil, safflower oil, and their blends on growth performance, feed utilization, condition indices, and…

There is increasing interest in plant-based ingredients that can contribute both visual appeal and distinctive sensory characteristics to food products. In this context, lactic-acid-fermented microalgae represent a promising alternative due to their natural pigmentation and potential to influence sensory and structura…

Background/aim: Phycoremediation is essential for purifying wastewater of heavy metals to ensure a sustainable environment, as these components can be detrimental to organisms upon entering the food chain. Among heavy metals, nickel is vital at low concentrations due to its presence in the active sites of many metallo…

Determining the optimal light intensity is essential for the growth of Chlorella vulgaris and the production of suitable biomass for biodiesel.This study aims to investigate the cultivation of Chlorella vulgaris under optimal light intensity to enhance biodiesel production while advancing the biological treatment of p…
