Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleCharacteristic Study of the Marine Algae Sargassum sp. on Metal AdsorptionA. Saravanan, V. Brindha, Soundarajan KrishnanProblem statement: Biomass of brown marine macro algae is a biological resource that is available in large quantities and can form a good base for the development of biosorbent material. Approach: Algae have been found to be potentially suitable biosorbents because of its cheap availability, both in fresh or salt water, relatively high surface area and high binding affinity. Results: … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 7 · 24 Jun 2011 · 7,666 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Effect of Fluoride and Other Ions on Algae and Fish of Coastal Water of Mediterranean Sea, EgyptM. S. Masoud, W. M. El-Sarraf, A. A. Harfoush, G. F. El-SaidSea grass, marine algae and fish samples were collected from the Egyptian coast of Mediterranean Sea during September 2000 and March 2001. The contents of fluoride and some interfering ions (calcium, magnesium, sulphate, phosphorus and some heavy metals) ions and their concentration factors were determined in the dried samples. Fluoride contents in macrophytes, algae, muscle of fish samples were ranged … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,274 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSargassum Invasion of Coastal Environments: A Growing ConcernClifford Louime, Jodany Fortune, Gary GervaisFloating tropical brown macroalgae, commonly called Sargassum, besieging the Caribbean coastlines have long been a regular occurrence in the region, especially during the fall and winter months. These washed-up seaweeds are considered by scientists as an important part of the coastal ecosystem, as they serve as habitat and nurseries for numerous marine species. However, in recent years, the region has … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 6 Feb 2017 · 12,739 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Bioactivity of Fucoxanthin from Undaria pinnatifida in VitroYiting Li, Ye Liu, Yuepeng Wang et al.Fucoxanthin, a marine carotenoid, can be found in marine algae and some marine invertebrates, has remarkable biological properties for human health. It is known that fucoxanthin has anti-cancer activity on some human cancer cells such as human colon cancers, leukemia cells, prostate cancer cells, breast cancer cells. In this study, the fucoxanthin was extracted from Undaria pinnatifida, after purification by … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 7 Jun 2016 · 7,868 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEco-Friendly Synthesis of Fucoidan-Stabilized Gold NanoparticlesKriengsak Lirdprapamongkol, Warangkana Warisnoicharoen, Suwicha Soisuwan, Jisnuson SvastiProblem statement: Metallic gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are widely used in many applications including medical, pharmaceutical, diagnostics and sensors. The chemical synthesis of AuNPs normally requires synthetic materials which might cause the toxicological concerns. The use of naturally occurring materials like fucoidans for successful synthesis of AuNPs is of interests. Approach: Fucoidans as sulfated polysaccharides from marine algae Cladosiphon okamuranus (o-fucoidan) … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 9,630 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAlbian-Cenomanian Zonation (Foraminifers and Calcareous Aglae) in the Northern Fars, IranMahnaz Parvaneh Nejad ShiraziProblem statement: In the middle Cretaceous of Iran, fossil calcareous algae and zonation them with foraminifers are one of the less studied compared to others invertebrate groups such as foraminiferis, mollusks and others. Several stratigraphic units were analyzed in detail and a biostratigraphic zonation of the Albian-Cenomanian rocks of the Fars basin (Sw. Iran) is proposed. Approach: All stratigraphic units … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,901 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordMarine-Derived Extracts as Economically Sustainable and Ethical Alternatives to Fetal Bovine Serum in HEK293 Cell CultureKian Kenneth Francisco Sanchez, Jennifer Seki-Wong et al.Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) is a staple supplement in cell culture, providing key growth factors that promote cell health and proliferation. Since 1885, cell culture has been a cornerstone of both basic and applied research, leading to significant discoveries of cell communication and function. However, the use of FBS presents economic and ethical challenges. Millions of bovine fetuses are euthanized … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 7 Aug 2026 · 1,051 accessesView PDFCite
