Assessing trophic state of surface waters of Sluzewiecki Stream (Warsaw)

Malgorzata Wojtkowska et al.

Summary: Phosphorus is a key nutrient compound for phytoplankton growth, and its concentration in water bodies like Sluzewiecki Stream and nearby lakes was found to determine the intensity of trophic processes. High concentrations of phosphorus and nitrogen were observed, indicating a serious threat of eutrophication for the analyzed surface waters as shown by calculated trophic state indexes.

Prototheca-ID: a web-based application for molecular identification of Prototheca species

Mikolaj Dziurzynski et al.

Summary: Prototheca is a genus of unicellular, achlorophyllous, yeast-like algae widely distributed in the environment, known to infect vertebrates including humans. Protothecosis can be clinically challenging and treatment-resistant, requiring accurate identification through DNA sequencing. Current limitations in sequence databases make Prototheca identification difficult and inconclusive, with a lack of bioinformatic tools for data processing and analysis. The introduction of Prototheca-ID aims to address these challenges by providing a user-friendly, web-based application for fast and reliable speciation of Prototheca isolates.

Protothecosis in Dogs and Cats-New Research Directions

Michiaki Masuda et al.

Summary: Protothecosis is a disease of humans and animals caused by infection with fungus-like, colourless microalgae of the genus Prototheca. While still uncommon, there is an increasing number of diagnosed cases worldwide. This review summarizes new findings in basic science and clinical features, diagnosis and treatment of protothecosis in dogs and cats based on information presented at a medical phycology symposium.
