The use of living Arthrospira platensis (A. platensis) cultures emerges as a promising green solution for the bioremediation water contaminated by toxic metal waste. scope present study is to evaluate microalga’s potential in heavy remediation, case multi-metal-treated (multi-MT) systems. For this reason, A. were exposed mono- and multi-metal solutions Cu, Cd, Ni, Pb, Zn, their adsorption ability was investigated. removal efficiency evaluated using atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). Additionally, examined Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Near-Infrared (NIR) Spectroscopy, UV-Vis spectrophotometry, optical microscopy, together with pH electrical conductivity (EC) measurements quality changes induced stress. results showed that still efficient multi-MT cultures. In particular, Zn elevated or relative respective mono-metal-treated (mono-MT) cultures, showing synergistic cooperative interaction between metals, while Ni decreased compared mono-MT an antagonistic other metals. shows considered effective microalga toward polluted

Engineered living materials (ELMs) integrate aspects of material science and biology into a unique platform, leading to devices with features life. Among those, ELMs containing microalgae have received increased attention due the many benefits photosynthetic organisms provide. Due their relatively recent occurrence, still face challenges related reliability, lifetime, scalability, more, often based on complicated crosstalk cellular, material-based, environmental variables in time. This Viewpoint aims summarize potential avenues for improving ELMs, beginning an emphasis understanding cell's perspective stresses imposed them recurring flaws current ELMs. Potential solutions ease implementation will be discussed, ranging from choice organism, adjustments ELM design, various genetic modification tools, so as achieve longer lifetime improved functionality.
