In this report, the authors describe the AlCRP project of CIFA, wherein various types of feeders were tested for fish ponds and the results that were obtained. They tell us about Fibre Re-inforced Plastic (FRP) based "demand"... more
The diverse development in the employment of algae to conquer the environmental snags have stimulated the assurance of achieving the sustainability. The word sustainability indicates the overall constructive improvements of an environ... more
Objective: The current study focuses on R-Phycoerythrin pigment production from Seaweed using different chemical and physical conditions. Methods: In the present study Seaweed was collected from Rameshwaram and identified by CS-MCRI... more
This study aimed to apply Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) for Chlorella vulgaris TISTR8580 intracellular extraction. Twenty-five g/L of algal cell samples were treated with PEF at 5 kV/cm under different pulses (1,500 2,500 3,500 and 4,500... more
The increasing demand for products derived from seaweeds has led to an increasing amount of research being directed towards studies related to their growth and productivity. Several investigators have attempted to develop different... more
One of our proposed research to the assignment that has been given. It applies the microalgae as the prime factor for biodiesel production. The proposed microalgae to be used is Botryococcus Braunii.
"We invite you to submit high quality of research papers in all areas of Life Sciences for the publication in & Trends in Biosciences & Advances in Life Sciences”. Dr. S. S. Ali, Editor – in- Chief , Trends in Biosciences Journal... more
Condition for natural fermentation during ensilage of fish processing waste in sugarcane molasses (50:50 w/w) were evaluated to produce fish hydrolysate/Liquid fish bio-fertilizer(LFB) and hydrolysate meal/Bioorganic fish... more
Cyanobacteria have appeared on the primordial Earth over three billion years ago and still thrive in most habitats. These photosynthetic microbes have remarkable genetic plasticity and variability and have evolved an amazing arsenal of... more
Micropropagation technologies play an important role in enhancing the nutritional composition of seaweeds. Kappaphycus alvarezii explants, obtained from two types of seedling production system viz. micropropagation and farm propagation,... more
Cultivation of seaweeds on a commercial scale requires a large number of propagules with desirable phenotypic traits which include high growth rates and resistance to diseases. Seaweed micropropagation can be considered as one of the best... more
Rhodymenia pseudopalmata lives in the intertidal zone receiving high doses of solar radiation, including the potentially harmful UVR. Previous studies proved it ability to adapt to different artificial light intensities and salinity... more
Seaweed farming has been identified as one of the entry point projects (EPPs) in Malaysia since the government introduced the Economic Transformation Programme, which aims to increase seaweed production to 150,000 t annually by 2020. To... more
Mixed microalgal consortia were adapted to grow in coal-fired flue gas. Step-wise adaptation to increasing flue gas was applied over several months. Phosphate buffering enabled growth in 100% unfiltered flue gas. Desmodesmus spp. were... more
This study aimed to evaluate and compare the quality of κ-carrageenan obtained from tissue-cultured and field-cultured Kappaphycus alvarezii. Carrageenan properties including yield, viscosity, gel strength and sulfate content were... more
We cordially announce the 21st Euro Biotechnology Congress to be held during October 11-12, 2018 Moscow, Russia. The attending delegates include Editorial Board Members of related international group journals. This is a fabulous open door... more
Based on recommendations of the “Salinity, Sanitation and Sustainability” study, Project K5/1621 investigated “Biotechnology of Saline Wastewater Treatment” culminating in the current two-volume report series. Volume 1 of project K5/1621... more
A review of the current literature indicates that natural seaweeds are an excellent source of bioactive compounds with antioxidant, antimicrobial and antitumor properties. In the present study, 90% methanolic, 70% acetonic and aqueous... more
Among the diverse new generation biomass yielding species, green algae are the most promising organisms. Compared to biomass production of other organisms, production of algae is less laborious, quite fast, and more economical. Moreover,... more
Abstract Euglena gracilis is a eukaryotic microalgae that has been the subject of scientific study for hundreds of years. It has a complex evolutionary history, with traces of at least four endosymbiotic genomes and extensive horizontal... more
Kappaphycus alvarezii is widely cultivated around the world as the demand for seaweed-based products now exceeds the supply of seaweed raw material. Protein profiling of macroalgae is important to understand the changes that occur during... more
Microalgae have been considered for biological carbon capture and sequestration to offset carbon emissions from fossil fuel combustion. This study shows that mixed biodiverse microalgal communities can be selected for and adapted to... more
Modern cultivation of vegetables and crops are profoundly dependent on the fertilizers for a higher yield, but currently the high usage of chemically synthesized based fertilizers and inorganic chemicals could cause several threats to... more
Worldwide the increasing use of inorganic nitrogenous fertilizer becomes a threat to the environment and consequently to the mankind. It is high time to think about the alternate nitrogenous source for assuring sustainable agriculture.... more
Novel operational strategies to reduce the O2 concentration in the upgraded biogas were evaluated in a 180 L algal–bacterial photobioreactor interconnected to a 2.5 L external absorption column during the simultaneous treatment of diluted... more
The cultivation of seaweeds contributes significantly to the national economy and provides employment to the economically backward communities of Sabah, Malaysia. Cultivation of seaweeds on a commercial scale requires a large number of... more
The global carbon cycle has altered significantly due to extensive use of fossil fuels which lead to increase in the emission of greenhouse gases such as CO 2 , CH 4 , NO 2 and CFCs causing climate change. In order to achieve... more
Joule is the most advanced and most scalable carbon-neutral source of energy for the mobility sector - Recycles CO₂ emissions through biocatalyst to produce ethanol and diesel/jet fuels - Also uses sunlight, non-potable brackish water and... more
Selection of appropriate native species/strains of micro algae that work well in local conditions is imperative for a viable algae-based biofuel production system. We have identified and isolated native predominant algal species of... more
The Chlorella genus has biotechnological potential and is suitable for high biomass production because of its large-scale cultivation technology. In order to define the conditions that best favor its development aiming to optimize crops... more
