The newly discovered algae species Streptofilum arcticum possesses a potentially highly flexible cell wall: When water is ...

The team isolated the chloroplasts from algal cells using a centrifuge and gentle stirring. Instead of then piercing the host cells’ membranes, as in earlier work, the researchers adjusted the culture ...

It also grows a type of bacteria called Arthospira, also known as blue ... micro algae, says its nutritional value needs more research. "Green microalgae [chlorella] have a very robust cell ...

Researchers from the University of Bayreuth and the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization in Göttingen have investigated the movement patterns of unicellular, hydrogen-producing ...

“Green algae serve as a mothership,” explained Zhang. “They carry hundreds to thousands of nanoparticles loaded with drug molecules.” The researchers developed microrobots by chemically attaching ...
