DOI: 10.1007/s00442-020-04707-8
Abstract: Ecological theory suggests that a combination of local and regional factors regulate biodiversity and community functioning in metacommunities. The relative importance of different factors structuring communities likely changes over successional time, but to date this… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-10764-6
Abstract: Microalgae – unicellular photosynthetic organisms – have received increasing attention for their ability to biologically convert CO2 into valuable products. The commercial use of microalgae requires screening strains to improve the biomass productivity to achieve a high-throughput.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0317044
Abstract: Photosynthetic eukaryotic microalgae are key primary producers in the Antarctic sea ice environment. Anticipated changes in sea ice thickness and snow load due to climate change may cause substantial shifts in available light to these… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2025.1621876
Abstract: Nanoparticle-based treatment is one of the rapidly growing research domains in cancer treatment due to its associated structural, targeted, and stability features. The conventional (chemical and physical) nanoparticle (NP) synthesis suffers from drawbacks such as… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2023.1108018
Abstract: Although bacteria are commonly co-occurring in microalgal cultivation and production systems, little is known about their community structure and how it might be affected by specific microalgal groups or growth conditions. A better understanding about… read more here.

DOI: 10.3856/vol53-issue4-fulltext-3394
Abstract: Protozoa contamination of microalgal cultures is a recurring issue in laboratories and bivalve hatcheries, often leading to significant schedule alterations and economic losses. This study evaluated the effectiveness of bleach (sodium hypochlorite) treatment in eliminating… read more here.
