Recent advances in research techniques have enabled rapid progress the study of spirulina, an ancient edible cyanobacteria. Nowadays, spirulina species are classified into three genera: Spirulina, Arthrospira, and Limnospira. The latter now refers to industrially manufactured strains. Whole-genome sequencing revealed gene clusters involved metabolite production, physiology spirulina. Omics technologies demonstrated absence hazardous compounds cells, confirming safety this biomass as a food product. Spirulina is good source different chemicals used manufacturing, supplements, pharmaceuticals. Spirulina’s enrichment with inherent biologically active substances makes it potential supplier natural products for dietary pharmaceutical applications. also prospective component both terrestrial space-based life support systems. Here, we review current breakthroughs clarify fallacies that can be found professional literature public media.

Antialgal Effects of Nonanoic and Palmitic Acids on Microcystis aeruginosa and the Underlying Mechanisms

Sustainability, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 17(3), С. 1207 - 1207

Опубликована: Фев. 2, 2025

Algal blooms caused by Microcystis aeruginosa are a common occurrence and pose significant threats to freshwater ecosystems. This study investigates the antialgal effects underlying mechanisms of two plant-derived fatty acids, nonanoic acid palmitic acid, on aeruginosa. The results show that inhibitory both acids M. increase with higher concentrations. recovery occurs when concentrations below 0.5 mg/L 50 mg/L. Acute toxicity tests indicate safe 1.87 263.3 mg/L, respectively. effect is more pronounced under conditions pH 5.5, 15 °C temperature, 0.75 nitrogen, 2 phosphorus, inhibition efficiency remaining unaffected increased light intensity. Both exert their strongest in early stages addition (0–8 days), causing cell death release extracellular organic matter primarily consisting aromatic compounds proteins. Oxidative stress analysis reveals high can cause irreversible damage algae’s antioxidant defense system. These findings provide valuable insights for prevention control cyanobacterial blooms, which help promote sustainable development

Effects of Different Sediment Improvers on the Growth Environment, Innate Immune Responses, and Intestinal Health of Procambarus clarkii

Biology, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 14(4), С. 407 - 407

Опубликована: Апрель 11, 2025

Sediment improvers are important mediators of aquatic animals’ growth performance and the surrounding environmental quality. However, physiological responses crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) to different sediment remain unclear. Here, we cultivated using two chemical (potassium monopersulfate potassium ferrate) biological (purple nonsulfur photosynthetic bacteria Bacillus subtilis) at low high concentrations. After 42 days, found that addition was more effective in improving water quality than (e.g., stable pH lower nutrient concentrations). By contrast, application resulted considerably enhanced final weight, weight gains, survival rates. In all low-concentration groups, activity immune-related enzymes superoxide dismutase glutathione peroxidase) hemolymph hepatopancreas increased, whereas malondialdehyde mRNA expression AMP genes (PcALF PcCru) decreased. Crayfish exposed concentrations exhibited intestinal hepatopancreatic integrity, with a thickened mucosal layer increased density epithelial cell granules. Additionally, composition gut microbiota varied after improvers. summary, our research indicated types not only improved farming environment but also had varying effects on crayfish. Therefore, an appropriate improver based specific aquaculture conditions is needed.
