Aims: The present study was undertaken to investigate the protective effect of lipid extract Dunaliella sp. (LE) rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), against oxidative stress induced by nickel experimental rats.Methods: Our investigation evaluated antioxidant activity LE using both DPPH and NBT assays. Twenty female albino Wistar rats, randomly allocated into four groups, namely (C): control, (Nit): nickel-treated rats with 5 mg/kg/d NiCl2 during 30 days, (LEa): extract-administered...
Abstract BACKGROUND The three‐phase extraction process of olive oil produces highly contaminated wastewater (OMW). elimination this toxic by‐product is an important environmental issue that requires the development appropriate management solution. cultivation microalgae using OMW as growth medium was therefore studied single (the culture formed by 0% to 80% ultrafiltered mill (OMUF) or added BG11) and two‐stage strategies (microalgae were firstly cultivated in BG11 medium. In second stage,...
Abstract Background The industry of olive oil produces large wastewater quantities. elimination these toxic by-products is an important environmental issue that requires a sufficient solution. In this study, Scenedesmus sp. was used for the simultaneous lipid and antioxidant molecules production mill biodegradation. Results two-stage cultivation did not significantly inhibit microalgal biomass, compared to single growth stage, when OMW OMUF were supplied at beginning cultivation. OMUF, 40%,...
