Physicochemical Stability Enhancement of ?-carotene-rich O/W Nanoemulsions using a New Natural Emulsifier Developed from Pistacia lentiscus Fruit Residue
(
Springer
, 2023 , Article)
A natural antioxidant-emulsifier was developed from oil pressed Pistacia lentiscus fruit and tested for oil-in-water nanoemulsions ?-carotene encapsulation. Five extracts were prepared, characterized and screened for their ...
Overproduction of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) by the extremely halophilic archaeon Haloarcula sp. CEJ40-10 using starchy substrate
(
Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH
, 2023 , Article)
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), green alternatives to petroleum-derived plastics, possess desired features that make them preferred for various applications. Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB), one of the most known representative ...

Globally, nations are trying to address environmental issues such as global warming and climate change, along with the burden of declining fossil fuel reserves. Furthermore, countries aim to reach zero carbon emissions ...
Pilot-scale crossflow ultrafiltration of four different cell-sized marine microalgae to assess the ultrafiltration performance and energy requirements
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Four marine microalgae (e.g., Tetraselmis, Picochlorum, Dunaliella, and Synechococcus) with different cell sizes were harvested using pilot-scale ultrafiltration. Average permeate fluxes were 16.75, 19, 25.35, and 33.75 ...
Phytochemical profiling, antimicrobial, antibiofilm, insecticidal, and anti-leishmanial properties of aqueous extract from Juglans regia L. root bark: In vitro and in silico approaches
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2023 , Article)
The Juglans regia root aqueous extract (JRRAE) phytochemical variability and the investigation of their antimicrobial, antibiofilm, insecticidal, and anti-leishmanial properties were studied. As a result, the JRRAE chemical ...

(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Microalgae have become a key source of valuable compounds, promoting commercial scale applications. However, biological contamination is one of the most critical problems associated with large scale algal production, ...
Effects of microplastics’ physical and chemical properties on aquatic organisms: State-of-the-art and future research trends
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Microplastics (MPs) pose a global threat to marine ecosystems, little is known about the factors that influence their bioavailability. Microplastics have the ability to adsorb contaminants from the environment, as well as ...
Efficient extraction of lipids from microalgal biomass for the production of biofuels using low-cost protic ionic solvents
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
The valorization of lipids available in microalgal biomass supports the indispensable transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy systems such as biofuels. Ionic liquids have been long investigated for the effective ...
