Development of a novel perfusable solution for ex vivo preservation: towards photosynthetic oxygenation for organ transplantation
(Frontiers Media, 2021)
Oxygen is the key molecule for aerobic metabolism, but no animal cells can produce it, creating an extreme dependency on external supply. In contrast, microalgae are photosynthetic microorganisms, therefore, they are able ...
Development of a Novel Perfusable Solution for ex vivo Preservation: Towards Photosynthetic Oxygenation for Organ Transplantation
(Frontiers Media SA, 2021)
Oxygen is the key molecule for aerobic metabolism, but no animal cells can produce it, creating an extreme dependency on external supply. In contrast, microalgae are photosynthetic microorganisms, therefore, they are able ...
Photosynthetic efficiency and rate of CO2 assimilation by Arthrospira (Spirulina) platensis continuously cultivated in a tubular photobioreactor
(WILEY-BLACKWELLHOBOKEN, 2012)
Similar to other photosynthetic microorganisms, the cyanobacterium Arthrospira platensis can be used to produce pigments, single cell proteins, fatty acids (which can be used for bioenergy), food and feed supplements, and ...
Nitric oxide synthases from photosynthetic microorganisms: discovering the tip of the iceberg
(Elsevier Academic Press Inc., 2021)
Nitric oxide (NO) is a signal molecule produced in species of all kingdoms of life. In animals, NO is synthesized by NO synthases (NOSs) enzymes using l-arginine as substrate. In the plant kingdom, findings showed the ...
Structure diversity of nitric oxide synthases (NOS): the emergence of new forms in photosynthetic organisms
(University of Arizona, 2013-07)
Humans have enormously increased the level of nitrogen (N) circulating in the troposphere and the earth surface during the last century, correlating with the population increase. As an undesirable consequence, high levels ...
Freshwater microalgae biomasses exert a prebiotic effect on human colonic microbiota
(2021-12-01)
The effects of digested microalgae biomass of Chlorella vulgaris, Desmodesmus maximus, Chlorococcum sp. cf hypnosporum, and Spirulina platensis or fructooligosaccharides on human colonic microbiota during in vitro fermentation ...
Photosymbiosis for Biomedical Applications.
(2020)
Without the sustained provision of adequate levels of oxygen by the cardiovascular system, the tissues of higher animals are incapable of maintaining normal metabolic activity, and hence cannot survive. The consequence of ...
Photosynthetic microorganisms for the oxygenation of advanced 3D bioprinted tissues
(Acta Materialia Inc, 2022)
3D bioprinting technology has emerged as a tool that promises to revolutionize the biomedical field, including tissue engineering and regeneration. Despite major technological advancements, several challenges remain to be ...
In situ search for extraterrestrial life: A microbial fuel cell-based sensor for the detection of photosynthetic metabolism
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2015-09)
Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are bioelectrochemical systems (BES) capable of harvesting electrons from redox reactions involved in metabolism. In a previous work, we used chemoorganoheterotrophic microorganisms from the ...
