Red alerts have been announced for toxic blue-green algae at the Menindee weir, as well as for the Lower Darling/Baarka, all the way to the intersection with the Murray River. ...
A research team at AlgaStar Inc., a Florida-based biomass R&D cultivation company, reported to the Algae Biomass Summit in 2014 that electromagnetic field (EMF) biostimulation had yielded a 300 percent biomass growth increase and 174 percent increase in lipid oil content in several alga samples over controlled growth conditions. ...
His team has collected hundreds of sponges, algae, and other organisms from remote waters all over the world. Several of these samples have shown to be potential leads for cancer drugs, and one recently discovered specimen shows promise against malaria, a disease that killed upward of 430,000 people last year. ...

"You need to be ready and have a plan in place," said Roger Tucker, who monitors algae sampling for the Louisville Water Co. in Kentucky. "The Ohio River is proof of that." ...
In this study, researchers examined the simultaneous effects of nitrogen oxide pollution and increased CO2 on the growth of turfing algae, and investigated whether reducing pollutant levels could restrict the algae’s increased CO2-driven growth. They put a sample of algae in plastic tanks filled with seawater, and placed ...
The samples were then sent to an FDA-audited laboratory for analysis. When compared with centrifuging, the Algae Appliance reduced bacterial colonies by 98% in the case of open ponds, and 99% for bioreactors. ...
The GEF announced earlier this month (12 January) that Panama will receive US$1 million from the NPIF to carry out a three-year project at the Coiba Island National Marine Park — one of the most important nature reserves in the country — located in the Gulf of Chiriqui. Researchers will collect samples of plants, fungi and algae that have symbiotic ...
On Wednesday, April 13, 2011, the American Water Works Association (AWWA) will host the Algae Source to Treatment: Sampling Methods, Online Monitoring, and Cyanobacteria webcast. Part one of a two-part series, the webcast will review the most common and problematic algae in surface water supplies, including cyanobacteria or blue-green ...
