Transcriptomic analysis of a cold‐resistant Nordic microalga: unraveling the mechanisms underlying adaptation to low temperatures Open
Cold stress imposes a great physiological impact on most photosynthetic organisms. The acclimation to cold is very poorly studied in microalgae, even though understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying their cold tolerance has implica…

A step towards more eco-friendly and efficient microalgal harvesting: Inducing flocculation in the non-naturally flocculating strain Chlorella vulgaris (13-1) without chemical additives Open
Flocculation is often regarded as a cost-effective and reliable method for microalgal harvesting. However, the traditional method often requires the addition of chemical agents to induce flocculation. This carries certain disadvantages inc…

The cell wall of green microalgae and its role in heavy metal removal Open
Heavy metals in industrial wastewaters are posing a serious threat to the environment and to human health. Microalgae are increasingly being seen as potential solutions to this problem as they can remove pollutants through biosorption. Thi…
