Researchers have used plasma technology to transform a species of blue-green microalgae into a bioactive coating with incredible wound-healing properties. They say the novel coating can be applied to ...

Microalgae such as the diatom Odontella aurita and the green alga Tetraselmis striata are especially suitable as 'biofactories' for the production of sustainable materials for 3D laser printing due to ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) The development of sustainable and biocompatible materials has become increasingly important in scientific research, driven by growing environmental concerns and the need for ...

Researchers at Flinders University have taken a major step in the field of wound care by using plasma technology to ‘transform’ Spirulina microalgae into ultrathin bioactive coatings. The innovative ...

It’s hard to green the desert. Take China, or Africa’s Sahel region, for example. Their “Great Green Walls,” grand projects to beat back encroaching desert by planting trees, have required decades of ...

In their latest publication for the journal Foods, researchers from the ecological aquaculture lab at UC Santa Cruz shared a sustainable seafood innovation years in the making. Building upon many ...

In nature, the ten-micron small, single-cell microalgae are fantastic swimmers, propelled by their two whip-like flagella at the front. However, it wasn’t clear what would happen if scientists covered ...

Their findings, published in Science Advances, described the development of biohybrid microrobots from green algae laden with chemotherapeutic drugs which reduced lung metastasis burden and prolonged ...
