Abstract Microalgae species encounter oxidative stress in their natural environments, prompting the development of species-specific adaptation mechanisms. Understanding these mechanisms can offer valuable insights for biotechnological applications microalgal metabolic manipulation. In this study, we investigated response Tetraselmis chuii , an industrially important microalga, to H 2 O -induced stress. Exposure 0.5-mM resulted reduced cell viability, and higher concentrations led a drastic...
Microalgae have gained significant attention as sustainable sources of high value compounds, such bioactive polysaccharides that are usually rich in sulfated groups and exhibit antioxidant properties. Here, 14 new microalgae strains the genera Tetraselmis, Dunaliella, Nannochloropsis, isolated from Greek coastal lagoons were analyzed to quantify characterize their polysaccharide content. Heterogeneity was observed regarding content total sugars (5.5-40.9 g/100 g dry biomass). The with a...
Although carotenoids generally possess antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, the in vivo synergistic action of carotenoid blends derived from plant-based by-products has not been thoroughly studied. Therefore, characterization potential Citrus reticulata extract as well impact this carotenoid-rich (CCE) dietary supplementation on performance, meat quality, immune-oxidative status broiler chickens were determined. One hundred twenty one-day-old hatched chicks (Ross 308) allocated to two...
Crocus sativus L. has various pharmacological properties, known for over 3600 years. These properties are attributed mainly to biologically active substances, which belong the terpenoid group and include crocins, picrocrocin safranal. The aim of current work was examine effects crocins (CRCs) their methyl ester derivate dimethylcrocetin (DMCRT) on glioblastoma rhabdomyosarcoma cell lines, in terms cytotoxicity gene expression, implicated proapoptotic survival pathways. Cell assessed with...
In the pursuit of sustainable sources for food, energy, and health products, microalgae have gained attention. present study, lagoonal system Nestos River delta was selected as a sampling point in order to search opportunistic robust species. Two new strains Tetraselmis are described with regards their taxonomic features (as observed using light transmission electron microscopy molecular phylogenetics) biochemical properties (total lipid, total protein, carbohydrate content, photosynthetic...
The high genetic heterogeneity of small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) renders the characterization circulating strains crucial for epidemiological investigation and designation effective diagnostic tools. In Greece, research data regarding diversity SRLV is scarce, hindering implementation efficient surveillance control programs. objective study was to genetically characterize isolated from intensive dairy sheep farms in Greece evaluate variability immunodominant regions capsid protein. For...
The aim of the current study wat to comparatively assess impact different nitrogen (N) fertilization schemes on fresh pod yield and quality in either organically or conventionally grown common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). Prior bean crop establishment, experimental field site was cultivated following organic (a) conventional (b) farming practices with a winter non-legume (Brassica oleracea var. italica) (BR), (c) (Vicia faba sp.) destined serve as green manure (GM) crop. At end cultivation...
A significant number of research papers regarding biosensor-related assays for key food safety pathogens based on the use mammalian cells has been reported. In this study, Salmonella typhimurium infection progression was monitored in human colon cancer cell line Caco-2 and mucus-secreting HT29-MTX-E12, after treatment with five different bacterial MOI 30 min by comparing alterations frequencies recordings impedance spectroscopy measurements. For purpose, adhesion invasion were initially...
Liver cancer ranks among the most prevalent malignancies globally and stands as a leading cause of cancer-related mortality. Numerous isothiazolone derivatives analogues have been synthesized investigated for their potential anticancer agents; however, limited data exist regarding efficacy against liver cancer. In present study, two nitrophenyl-isothiazolones, 5-benzoyl-2-(4-nitrophenyl)isothiazol-3(2H)-one (IsoA) 2-(4-nitrophenyl)isothiazol-3(2H)-one (IsoB), were preliminarily cytotoxicity...
