The study of the microalgal growth kinetics is an indispensable tool in all fields phycology. Knowing optimal nutrient concentration important issue that will help to develop efficient systems for these microorganisms. Although nitrogen and phosphorus are well studied this purpose, sulfur seems be less investigated. Sulfate a primary source used by microalgae; moreover, compound increasing freshwater due pollution. aim was investigate effects different sodium sulfate concentrations culture...
Flow cytometric measurements were used to investigate the toxic action of copper on some Phaeodactylum tricornutum membrane systems. Throughout time metal exposure, percentage viable cells decreased as concentration increased. The forward scatter signal increased a result exposure. After 72 h cultures with 0.5 and 1 mg l−1 showed an important increase in peroxidase activity comparison control cells. Cells cultured presented alterations potential, increasing increased, after 96 Results...
The efficiency of the living biomass microalga Chlamydomonas moewusii in removing methylene blue dye is determined. kinetics, equilibrium isotherms, and effects on this process pH, contact time, initial concentration are studied. Fourier transform infrared spectrometry point zero charge used to characterize explore process. maximum removal capacity derived from Langmuir isotherm 212.41 ± 4.55 mg/g after 7 h time at pH 7. rapid because kinetic studies revealed that best fit data with...
Abstract Pollution by dyes is a serious environmental problem. Marine waters receive pollutants from many sources, however, there are few studies that deal with the elimination of these environments. The search for effective, cheap, and ecological procedures to remove seawater current challenge. Biosorption meets requirements, but it necessary find best biosorbent operating conditions. Since microalgal biomass considered good biosorbent, efficiency living marine microalga Phaeodactylum...
