The marine environment is a relatively unexplored source of functional ingredients that can be used in food processing, storage, and fortification variety ways. Marine microorganisms are possible novel bioactive chemicals with potential human utility. Some these microbes live the harsh environments, resulting complex compounds unique biological properties several industrial biotechnological applications. So far, (fungi, myxomycetes, bacteria, microalgae) have been isolated produce antioxidant, antibacterial, apoptotic, antitumoral, antiviral chemicals. Furthermore, it emphasizes enormous for to very important main goal this review provide concise overview constituents bioactives. Anticoagulant, anticancer, hypocholesterolemic effects demonstrated peptides extracted from fish protein hydrolysates, as well algal fucans, galactans, alginates. omega-3 fatty acids abundant oils microorganisms, while potent antioxidants such carotenoids phenolic found crustaceans seaweeds. This focuses on use marine-derived health maintenance chronic disease prevention, based their qualities.

Establishing the first human presence on Mars will be most technically challenging undertaking yet in exploration beyond our planet. The remoteness of from Earth, inhospitable surface conditions including low atmospheric pressure and cold temperatures, need for basic resources water, pose a formidable challenge to this endeavour. intersection multiple disciplines required provide solutions temporary eventually permanent Martian habitation. This review considers role cyanobacteria eukaryotic microalgae (collectively referred here as 'microalgae') may have supporting missions red current research using these microorganisms biological life support systems is discussed, with systematic analysis their usage each system conducted. potential astronauts oxygen, food, bio-polymers pharmaceuticals considered. An overview microalgal experiments space across last 60 years presented, exploring technical challenges cultivation discussed. From findings, an argument culturing subterranean bioreactors proposed. Finally, future synthetic biology approaches enhancing cyanobacterial/microalgal deep-space are presented. We show that hold significant promise providing many problems faced by settlers, however can only realised infrastructure reliable power source.

The structurally diverse bioactive compounds found in marine organisms represent valuable resources for the food and pharmaceutical industries. ecosystem encompasses over half of world’s biota, providing an extensive range that can be extracted from various life forms, including microorganisms (such as bacteria, cyanobacteria, actinobacteria), algae (both macroalgae microalgae), invertebrates (including sponges, mollusks, echinoderms, crustaceans), and, most importantly, fish. Many these thrive extreme environments, leading to production complex molecules with unique biological functions. Consequently, biomolecules, such lipids (especially polyunsaturated fatty acids), proteins/peptides, polysaccharides, carotenoids, phenolics, saponins, exhibit a wide properties serve components nutraceuticals functional foods. Nevertheless, biomolecules are susceptible oxidation degradation; encapsulation-based technologies tend preserve them increase their bioavailability These demonstrate activities, antioxidant, anticancer, antithrombotic, anticoagulant, anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, antidiabetic, antimicrobial, cardioprotective effects, making promising candidates applications industry. Despite numerous health benefits, have remained underutilized, not only industry but also nutraceutical sectors. Therefore, this review aims provide overview sources potential contributions

Cold environments include deep ocean, alpine, and polar areas. Even if the cold conditions are harsh extreme for certain habitats, various species have been adapted to survive in them. Microalgae among most abundant microbial communities which live low light, temperature, ice coverage typical of by activating different stress-responsive strategies. These shown bioactivities with possible exploitation capabilities human applications. they less explored compared living more accessible sites, activities highlighted, such as antioxidant anticancer activities. This review is focused on summarizing these discussing cold-adapted microalgae. Thanks possibility mass cultivating algae controlled photobioreactors, eco-sustainable fact sampling a few microalgal cells without impacting environment.

In recent times, there has been a revolutionary surge in antioxidant research, with focus on harnessing microalgae to enhance wellness and extend human longevity. Microalgae, diverse group of unicellular photosynthetic organisms, have emerged as promising sources natural antioxidants due their ability synthesize various bioactive compounds, including carotenoids, polyphenols, tocopherols. These play pivotal role scavenging free radicals reducing oxidative stress, known contributors aging chronic diseases. This review provides an over-view advancements understanding microalgae’s potential, covering biochemical composition, extraction techniques, purification methods. Moreover, it delves into compelling vitro vivo studies showcasing microalgae-derived antioxidants’ protective effects against damage, inflammation, cardiovascular diseases, neurodegenerative disorders. The sustainable cultivation controlled environments further supports the potential for large-scale production commercialization compounds. As continue revolutionize they hold immense promise developing novel preventive therapeutic strategies promote health wellbeing.

Microalgae have been reported to be excellent producers of bioactive molecules. Lutein is a pigment various beneficial effects for humans, and especially eye well-being. In the current review, we summarize methods that developed optimize its extraction bioactivities human health. Several protective lutein, including antioxidant, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, cardioprotective activity. This review also reports attempts increase lutein production by microalgae changing culturing parameters or using pilot-scale systems. Genetic engineering discussed. Considering increasing aging worldwide population will create an increased need viable economic eco-sustainable method produce needed face this market demand.

The aqueous solubility of a drug is important in the oral formulation because can be absorbed from intestinal sites after being dissolved gastrointestinal fluid, leading to its bioavailability. Almost 80% active pharmaceutical ingredients are poorly water-soluble, including antioxidant compounds. This makes activity inefficient preventing disease, particularly for orally administered formulations. Although several investigations have been carried out improve compounds, there still limited research fully discussing subject. Therefore, this study aimed provide an overview and discussion issues related methods that used Articles were found using keywords “antioxidant” “water improvement” Scopus, PubMed, Google Scholar databases. selected articles published within last five years ensure all information was up-to-date with same objectives. most popular strategies employed solid dispersion, co-amorphous, nanoparticle delivery systems, which enhance These produced impressive results, detailed mechanism improvement compounds developed. review shows increase successfully improved their enhanced free radical scavenging abilities.

Prostate cancer is the most common in men, with over 52,000 new cases diagnosed every year. Diagnostics and early treatment are potentially hindered by variations screening protocols, still largely reliant on serum levels of acid phosphatase prostate-specific antigen, tumour diagnosis grading relying histopathological examination. Current interventions vary terms efficacy, cost severity side effects, relapse can be aggressive resistant to current standard care. For these reasons, scientific community looking for chemotherapeutic agents. This review reports compounds extracts derived from marine organisms as a potential source drugs against prostate cancer. Whilst there several marine-derived other cancers, such multiple myeloma, leukemia, breast lung cancer, already available market, presently collated findings show how environment considered hold drug well. presents information clinical trials, well compounds/extracts that may enter trials future. We summarise regarding mechanisms action active concentrations.
