Research has been conducted across a range of model organisms, including plants like microalgae and Arabidopsis, as well as animals such as mice, fish, and even humans. ...
Creative Biogene has established various plant-based protein expression systems to provide recombinant protein production service for global clients. ...
Algatech's Fucovital proprietary fucoxanthin oleoresin is the world's first microalgae derived extract standardized to 3% fucoxanthin, plus naturally occurring omega-3's (EPA) and other beneficial fatty acids. ...

Redono is performing hydroponic plant cultivation and microalgae cultivation researches together with the Clean Technologies Department in Metropolia, University of Applied Science, Vantaa. ...
Upping the PACE At NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, research scientist Cecile Rousseaux is using machine learning to better understand the distribution of phytoplankton (also know as microalgae) in the oceans. These microscopic plants float on the surface of the seas and produce much of the oxygen we breathe. ...

Several obstacles and limitations currently prevent the industrial exploitation of microalgae for feed, food and biofuel production. Photobioreactors (closed systems for algae cultivation) suffer from high-energy expenditures for mixing and cooling, while cultures in large-scale open ponds, which have a more favorable net energy ratio, are unstable ecosystems in which maintaining ...
The paper reports the results of an experiment to assess the feasibility of including a photobioreactor within the design of a wastewater treatment plant, growing microalgae on the centrate from anaerobic sludge dewatering. ...
This study presents the thermodynamic feasibility of microalgal biodiesel production plant via exergy analysis. Mathematical modelling with Aspen Plus shows that the centrifuge for algae–medium separation recorded the highest exergy loss of 925 MJ representing 15% of the total exergy loss. 64% of the total exergy input into the whole plant is destroyed to attain ...
Proof-of-concept has been demonstrated for a process that will utilize nutrients from sludge liquor, natural light, and CO2 from biogas to grow microalgae at wastewater treatment plants. This process will reduce the impact of returning side-streams to the head of the plant. ...
A simple, quantitative experimental model, offering a convenient and basic approach to studies of plant-bacterium interactions, is proposed. This involves immobilizing a unicellular, freshwater microalga, a Chlorella species, serving as the plant, with a plant growth-promoting bacterium, an Azospirillum species, in small ...
