Enhanced cellulose and chitin biosynthesis in the microalga Chlorella vulgaris - towards a biorefinery concept for bioplastic applications

Enio Daniel Zanchetta

Plastics are versatile polymeric materials that are produced for a multitude of useful applications. The world-wide demand for plastics, which are currently mostly made from fossil fuels, is continuously increasing. The development of biodegradable plastic ...

Nutrient pollution enhances productivity and framework dissolution in algae- but not in coral-dominated reef communities

Nils Rädecker

Ecosystem services provided by coral reefs may be susceptible to the combined effects of benthic species shifts and anthropogenic nutrient pollution, but related field studies are scarce. We thus investigated in situ how dissolved inorganic nutrient enrich ...

Analytical ultracentrifugation to support the development of biomaterials and biomedical devices

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Jutta Christine Wandrey

Analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC) primarily serves to investigate hydrodynamic and thermodynamic properties of natural and synthetic macromolecules and colloids in solution, dispersion or suspension. Beside such more conventional use, AUC can support ma ...

Phospholipases and Galactolipases Trigger Oxylipin-Mediated Wound-Activated Defence in the Red Alga Gracilaria chilensis against Epiphytes

Johel Beltran Ramirez

We investigated the wound response of the commercially important red alga, Gracilaria chilensis, in order to obtain insight into its interaction with epiphytic pests. After wounding, the host releases free fatty acids as well as the hydroxylated eicosanoid ...
