Efficient Removal of Methylene Blue Using Living Biomass of the Microalga Chlamydomonas moewusii: Kinetics and Equilibrium Studies
(MDPI, 2022-02-24)
[Abstract] The efficiency of the living biomass of the microalga Chlamydomonas moewusii in removing methylene blue dye is determined. The kinetics, equilibrium isotherms, and the effects on this process of the pH, contact ...
Unravelling Joint Cytotoxicity of Ibuprofen and Oxytetracycline on Chlamydomonas Reinhardtii Using a Programmed Cell Death-Related Biomarkers Panel
(Elsevier, 2023-02-24)
[Abstract] Pharmaceutical active compounds (PhACs) are emerging contaminants that pose a growing concern due to their ubiquitous presence and harmful impact on aquatic ecosystems. Among PhACs, the anti-inflammatory ibuprofen ...
Biosorption: A Review of the Latest Advances
(MDPI, 2020-12-01)
[Abstract] Biosorption is a variant of sorption techniques in which the sorbent is a material of biological origin. This technique is considered to be low cost and environmentally friendly, and it can be used to remove ...
Assessment of cytotoxicity biomarkers on the microalga "Chlamydomonas reinhardtii" exposed to emerging and priority pollutants
(Elsevier, 2020-11-17)
[Abstract] Contamination of aquatic ecosystems linked to anthropogenic activity is currently a major concern; therefore, ecotoxicological studies are needed to assess its effect on organisms. The main objective of this ...
Cytotoxicity of BP-3 and BP-4: Blockage of Extrusion Pumps, Oxidative Damage and Programmed Cell Death on Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
(Elsevier, 2022-09-07)
[Abstract] The health concern associated with the dangers related to exposure to UV radiation has led to an increase in the use of sunscreens containing UV-filters that can reach aquatic environments and possibly affect ...
Modeling the Number of People Infected With SARS-COV-2 From Wastewater Viral Load in Northwest Spain
(Elsevier, 2022)
[Abstract] The quantification of the SARS-CoV-2 RNA load in wastewater has emerged as a useful tool to monitor COVID–19 outbreaks in the community. This approach was implemented in the metropolitan area of A Coruña (NW ...
Analysis of the effects of BP-3 and BP-4 on the transcriptome of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii: An RNA-Seq approach
(Springer, 2023)
[Abstract] Benzophenones (BPs) are one of the most widely used UV-filters and previous flow cytometric studies have shown that these aquatic emerging pollutants alter the physiology of the freshwater microalga Chlamydomonas ...
