Extraction of microplastics from commonly used sea salts in India and their toxicological evaluation

M. Sivagami et al.

Summary: The study found that microplastics are present in commercial sea salts and have detrimental effects on marine organisms and human health, especially showing toxicity to HEK293 cells in vitro. The identified microplastics mainly consist of fragments, fibers, and pellets, primarily composed of cellulose, polystyrene, polyamide, and polyarylether.

Mixotrophic cultivation of Chlorella vulgaris in sugarcane molasses preceding nitrogen starvation: Biomass productivity, lipid content, and fatty acid analyses

Natasha Laraib et al.

Summary: A precharacterized oleaginous microalgal species (Chlorella vulgaris) was cultivated under mixotrophic and photoautotrophic conditions to analyze its biomass productivity and fatty acid composition. Mixotrophic cultivation demonstrated higher productivity and lipid content compared to photoautotrophic cultivation, with a significant presence of polyunsaturated fatty acids ensuring the production of high quality biofuel.

A critical review on the formation, fate and degradation of the persistent organic pollutant hexachlorocyclohexane in water systems and waste streams

Srikanth Adithya et al.

Summary: The environmental impacts of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are a growing concern, and efficient degradation techniques are needed to mitigate these effects. This study focuses on the degradation of hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) and finds that adsorption, bioremediation, and advanced oxidation processes can achieve near complete removal of HCH under ideal conditions.
