Arthrospira platensis extract is incorporated into sunscreen formulations for its beneficial and UV-protective properties on cultured human cells. However, its effects have not yet been assessed on non-target organisms such as endosymbiotic microalga...
Microalgae are photosynthetic microorganisms that could be used as potential microbial cell factories by directly converting CO2 into valuable bioproducts and biofuels. This study aims to improve the production of biofuel from the isolated green alga...
There has been an increasing interest in studying species of the thecate dinophysoid dinoflagellates, especially the genera Dinophysis and Phalacroma, all around the world. Abundant net phytoplankton material collected from coasts of the western coas...
HCBs (Harmful Cyanobacterial Blooms) are increasing in freshwaters across the globe, particularly at lower latitudes. In Southern Europe, a decrease in annual precipitation and an increase in drought periods have enhanced the occurrence of HCBs, impa...
Our current knowledge of the cyanobacterial diversity in Egypt is still underestimated During our routine study on Egyptian cyanobacteria, two interesting and morphologically cryptic strains were isolated from streams of Bahr Yussef and Qarun Lake, o...
Rhodomelaceae is the largest red algae family, with 158 genera and more than 1000 described nominal species. In particular, Acanthophora (Rhodomelaceae) is a red alga with erect thalli that arises from stoloniferous branches or holdfast discs, with c...
Pelagic Sargassum impacts the Caribbean and West Africa since 2011, disrupting economies and bringing major environmental, social, and health concerns. Avenues explored to valorise this biomass include the production of liquid biofertilisers and bios...
Microalgae biotechnology is increasingly applied across diverse fields, from food and medicine to energy and environmental protection, with strain selection being crucial for both target product accumulation and scalability potential. In this study,...
Transparent Exopolymer Particles (TEP) play a key role in the marine carbon cycle, facilitating the aggregation and exportation of organic matter. TEP production is particularly relevant during Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs), where dinoflagellates like...
The application of marine algae-derived biostimulants offers a sustainable approach to improving plant performance in aromatic and medicinal crops. This study investigated the effects of four macroalgal extracts and two commercial biostimulant produc...
