Abstract Background The Nile River included diverse phytoplankton compositions belonging to five main categories. Algae have been classified and identified through comparative morphology. Results Pyrrophyta, Charophyta, Cyanophyta, Chlorophyta, Bacillariophyta were presented the full period of investigation with 1, 3, 14, 23, 28 species, respectively. Therefore, it may be important note that di...

O fitoplâncton é formado por microalgas e cianobactérias, fornecedores de oxigênio para o meio aquático. Em ecossistemas desequilibrados esses organismos podem se multiplicar produzir toxinas que afetam a saúde humana animal. Este estudo teve como objetivo identificar padrões densidade no da água bruta ETAm relacionar influência fatores físicos, químicos ambientais sobre das espécies. As amostr...

The goal for this work was to characterize basic biological properties of a novel Arthrospira platensis-based aqueous cyanophyta extract (ACE), enriched in the known anti-inflammatory cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor phycocyanin (PC), but also containing a high level of non-PC bioactive compounds. Antioxidant properties were tested in parallel in the Folin-Ciocalteu assay (chemical antioxidan...

The extensive presence of artificial reefs in marine coastal habitats demands a better understanding of the extent to which these structures can be considered surrogates of natural rocky shores for populations of plants and animals. The primary aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that removing limpets from the midlittoral of artificial breakwaters in the northwest Mediterranean led to ...

Natural lake systems represent important reservoirs for residential water supply, fish production, recreational activities and enjoyment of their natural beauty. Nevertheless, human impacts may affect their health status resulting in degradation and loss of biodiversity. The aim of the present study was to obtain data on the health status of a natural lake located in an indigenous reservation i...

The plankton community plays a significant role in the stability of coastal ecosystems. They serve as key players marine food webs. present study investigated diversity waters near Kalu Ganga river mouth. Six sampling locations were chosen randomly, three along right side coastline (CR1-CR3) and left-side (CL1-CL3) from Zooplankton phytoplankton at each location sampled September 2020 to Februa...

Analysis of water such as river and lakes can provide an insight into their composition potential impact on the environment. Nsit Ubium River is a fresh body that flows through urban areas in Akwa Ibom state. The locals attached lot socio-economic importance to river, result this humans generated pollutants find way it. Researching autecology microalgae algae sample were collected from for peri...
