Phycoremediation of Heavy Metals by Chlorella pyrenoidosa and Spirogyra communis
Environmental contamination by heavy metals is a serious problem due to their incremental accumulation in the food chain. Unlike most organic wastes and the microbial load in aquatic bodies, metal contaminants are not biodegradable, tending to accumulate in living organisms, thus becoming a permanent burden on ecosystems (Bayo, 2012). Most heavy metals are transition elements with incompletely ...
متن کاملSynthesis of Vitamin A by a Fresh-water Alga, Chlorella (sp.?).
JAMESON, DRUMMOND and COWARD [1922] showed that a marine diatom, Nitzschia closterium W, Sm., synthesises vitamin A when grown in Miquel's solution or sterilised sea-water in diffused sunlight. This work was, however, open to the criticism that the culture, one supplied by Dr Allen, Plymouth, was not pure, having been found to contain bacteria. Hence it was decided to repeat the work on a cultu...
متن کاملAdsorption of Lead by Microalgae Chaetoceros Sp. and Chlorella Sp. from Aqueous Solution
Introduction: Using bio-sorbents is regarded as one of the effective methods to remove heavy metals. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate Pb adsorption from contaminated water by Chaetoceros sp. and Chlorella sp. algae. Methods: This experimental study was conducted in a batch reactor. The amount of Pb adsorption by Chaetoceros sp. and Chlorella sp. algae was studied under such conditio...
متن کاملThe potential of crude oil pollutant reduction by green alga Chlorella vulgaris and evaluation of the induced physiological responses
In recent years, one of the most major world concerns is environmental pollutants derived from industrial and social performances. Unfortunately, in oil productive countries such as Iran, the substance is one of the most principle environmental pollutants. In this study, the effect of crude oil on some of physiological responses of unicellular alga Chlorella vulgaris such as the rate of photosy...
متن کاملKnockdown of PsbO leads to induction of HydA and production of photobiological H2 in the green alga Chlorella sp. DT.
Green algae are able to convert solar energy to H2 via the photosynthetic electron transport pathway under certain conditions. Algal hydrogenase (HydA, encoded by HYDA) is in charge of catalyzing the reaction: 2H(+)+2e(-)↔H2 but usually inhibited by O2, a byproduct of photosynthesis. The aim of this study was to knockdown PsbO (encoded by psbO), a subunit concerned with O2 evolution, so that it...
