1. 1. Evaluation of antioxidant effect of an algae extract on skin: in vitro study

   University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för biomedicinsk vetenskap (BMV)

   Author : Oday Al Mustafa; [2023]
   Keywords : Algae extract; antioxidant; DPPH; microalgae; ROS; skin covered oxygen electrode; skin;

   Abstract : Algae extracts are used as cosmetic products and used as additives in specific foods because of their antioxidant activity. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as hydrogen peroxide and superoxide radicals are toxic on the skin and can be scavenged by antioxidants, which are abundant in microalgae. READ MORE

3. 2. Relation between hydrogen production and photosynthesis in the green algae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

   Author : Alex Basu; [2015]
   Keywords : Bioenergy; biotechnology; solar fuels; hydrogen production;

   Abstract : The modernized world is over-consuming low-cost energy sources that strongly contributes to pollution and environmental stress. As a consequence, the interest for environmentally friendly alternatives has increased immensely. READ MORE

4. 3. Role of the photosystem II-associated CAH3 in the oxygen evolving machinery in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

   University essay from Institutionen för fysiologisk botanik; Umeå Plant Science Centre (UPSC)

   Author : Umut Rende; [2012]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : One of the most abundant proteins on the Earth is ribulose-1,5-biphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RUBISCO). RUBISCO is a CO2 fixing enzyme in oxygenic photosynthetic organisms that it has low affinity for CO2. When CO2 is the limiting factor in the environment, RUBISCO works inefficiently due to its oxygenase activity. READ MORE

5. 4. Economic analysis of energy and matter generation from microalgae : an environmental LCC model for hydrogen and biogas production from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Energy and Technology

   Author : Markus Meyer; [2012]
   Keywords : environmental life cycle costing; LCC; microalgae; photobireactor; PBR; hydrogen; biogas; Chlamydomonas reinhardtii;

   Abstract : Environmental life cycle costing has been applied to determine the economic viability of exclusive biogas production and coupled hydrogen and biogas production from microalgae in a photobioreactor (PBR). Exclusive biogas production consists of the production steps photoautotrophic biomass production and anaerobic digestion. READ MORE
