Researchers from several Parisian institutions have worked together to develop a non-destructive approach to study how ...

A growing body of research is revealing how the single-celled green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii coordinates a rapid, multi ...

If you suffer from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), a pill full of tiny algae robots may be just what you need. The bio-hybrid microrobots have already been shown to reduce symptoms and promote ...

The time it takes to grow new skin for burns victims could be improved thanks to a new method of cell cultivation using algae, developed by University of Queensland researchers. Our work shows muscle ...

Japanese researchers have achieved a breakthrough by inserting energy-generating chloroplasts from algae into hamster cells, allowing these animal cells to photosynthesize. Previously, it was believed ...

To help mitigate climate change, companies are using bioreactors to grow algae and other microorganisms that are hundreds of times more efficient at absorbing CO 2 than trees. Meanwhile, in the ...

“These algae potentially have an exceptionally flexible cell wall, which differs significantly in fine structure from those of other green algae. We demonstrated this using electron microscopy. During ...

In the game of survival, you can't always go it alone. Tiny algae living in the harsh conditions of the world's polar oceans ...

From dog sleds to horse-drawn carts, animals have been pulling vehicles for thousands of years. Now, scientists at the University of Tokyo have made what might be the smallest version ever, designing ...

Ferticell products allow for the transfer of nutrients from bacteria or algae cell to the plant cell to stimulate plant growth and the ability to take-up more nutrients. Explorer 10-0-0 is a soy-based ...

This fluorescence image shows chloroplasts (magenta colored) successfully incorporated into the hamster cells, with other features of the animal cell also highlighted (nuclei in light blue and ...
