Salt Tolerance and Desalination Abilities of Nine Common Green Microalgae Isolates

Green synthesis of Se nanoparticles and its effect on salt tolerance of barley plants

In this study, selenite ions were reduced to selenium nanoparticles using a leaf extract of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) plants. Characterization of synthesized nanoparticles using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and UV-visible spectrophotometry indicated the formation of variable size of selenium nanoparticles, suggesting that leaf extract could form polydispersed nanoparti...

Green microalgae biomolecule separations and recovery

Microalgae biomass has garnered significant attention as a renewable energy feedstock and alternative to petroleumbased fuels. The diverse metabolism of green microalgae species additionally provides opportunities for recovery of products for feed, food, nutraceutical, cosmetic, and biopharmaceutical industries. Recently, the concept of using microalgae as part of a biorefinery model has been a...

Salt Tolerance and Salt Poisoning of Swine

COMMON SALT is recognized as one of the chemical substances required in the diet of animals; hence it is good husbandry to include a supply in the rations of livestock. The quantitative requirements vary with the species. Those for swine are regarded as among the lowest. That excessive aniounts may be harmful to the extent of being toxic is not at all surprising, since there are recognized limi...
