If you suffer from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), a pill full of tiny algae robots may be just what you need. The bio-hybrid microrobots have already been shown to reduce symptoms and promote ...
ST. LOUIS, MO, November 13, 2023 — An international research team led by James Umen, PhD, member, Donald Danforth Plant Science Center has made an unexpected discovery of a biased counting mechanism ...
Cyanobacteria, also known as blue-green algae, occur worldwide in many varieties, including in single-cell form and in chains called filaments. While these tiny life forms can strongly influence many ...
Researchers have not only succeeded in using blue-green algae as a surrogate mother for a new protein -- they have even coaxed the microalgae to produce 'meat fiber-like' protein strands. The ...
What if humans didn’t need to breathe? A study on algae’s ability to oxygenate cells raises eyebrows
When you think of algae, you probably picture a vague nuisance for pool-owners, or that green or red goo that blooms in the oceans periodically— not a medicine that can be injected in your brain.
“These algae potentially have an exceptionally flexible cell wall, which differs significantly in fine structure from those of other green algae. We demonstrated this using electron microscopy. During ...
Scientists from Yonsei University in South Korea have developed a novel method to produce electricity from engineered green algae via a cellular PV power station. The system is designed for hydrogen ...
