Methylmercury (MeHg) is the most important and the most abundant organic Hg pollutant in the aquatic ecosystem that can affect human health through biomagnification. It is the most toxic organic Hg form, which occurs naturally and by human-induced co...

Extracts that were obtained with solvents of increasing polarity (hexane, dichloromethane, methanol, 80% methanol, and water) from the red macroalga Gracilaria domingensis were evaluated by reducing power with ferric reduction antioxidant power (FRAP...

Findings about CO2 dynamics in the Earth’s ancestral atmosphere have suggested much higher concentrations in past eras. Along this line, cyanobacteria are an early evolved photosynthetic group that is suggested to have experienced both high and...

Global estimates show that less than half the nitrogen fertiliser inputs to agricultural soil are taken up by crops. The remaining inorganic nutrients follow several pathways, with run off into nearby waterbodies being particularly problematic, contr...

Microalgae biomass is considered a promising alternative feedstock for biodiesel production due to its high productivity of neutral lipids, especially under abiotic stress conditions. Among the unicellular microalgae that show this characteristic, Ch...

This study collates and reviews the state of the art in the phenomenon of atypical pelagic Sargassum influxes in the coastline of the Mexican Caribbean, focusing on projects, studies and initiatives that have been conducted in the country for a decad...
