Effect of Bismuth, Gadolinium, and Cadmium Nanoparticles on Biomass, Carotenoid, and Lipid Content of Dunaliella salina (Dunal) Teodoresco

Vrinda Vijay Makhi et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of bismuth oxide, gadolinium oxide, and cadmium telluride nanoparticles on the growth of Dunaliella salina under controlled laboratory conditions. The results showed that lower concentrations of bismuth oxide stimulated the growth of D. salina, while higher concentrations inhibited cell proliferation. Gadolinium oxide initially inhibited the growth of microalgae but showed a significant increase in biomass after 60 days of cultivation. Meanwhile, the impact of cadmium telluride nanoparticles was minimal. Among the three tested nanoparticles, gadolinium oxide resulted in the highest carotenoid and total lipid content in the algal cells. Therefore, gadolinium oxide nanoparticles can be considered as an important additive in the industrial cultivation of D. salina.

Effects of polystyrene microplastics on copper toxicity to the protozoan Euglena gracilis: emphasis on different evaluation methods, photosynthesis, and metal accumulation

Xiuling Li et al.

Summary: The study found that the effects of microplastics on copper toxicity are influenced by concentration and exposure time, with a concentration of 5 mg/L causing a decrease in photosynthetic efficiency, but this effect weakened after 12 days of exposure. Exposure to copper alone led to increased copper accumulation in cells and inhibited the uptake of manganese and zinc. The presence of microplastics did not affect the effects of copper on trace metal accumulation.

Overview of the management of heavy metals toxicity by microalgae

Mohammed Danouche et al.

Summary: Microalgae, among the oldest life forms on Earth, have developed adaptive mechanisms to cope with harsh environmental conditions, including oxidative stress caused by heavy metals (HMs). They employ self-defense mechanisms such as ROS-scavenging enzymes and non-enzymatic antioxidant systems to manage oxidative stress, with the contribution of phytohormones playing an important role.

Knowledge of Regulation of Photosynthesis in Outdoor Microalgae Cultures Is Essential for the Optimization of Biomass Productivity

Giorgio Perin et al.

Summary: This paper discusses the current knowledge of regulation of photosynthesis and its implications for maximizing microalgae biomass productivity. Fluctuations in light have a negative impact on biomass productivity in large-scale microalgae cultures, thus requiring rapid regulatory mechanisms to respond to sudden changes in light intensity. Microalgae also have the ability to modulate the composition and activity of the photosynthetic apparatus in response to environmental conditions, a response that is also activated in outdoor cultures. Integrating detailed knowledge from large-scale microalgae cultivation is essential for optimizing biomass productivity effectively.
