Overview on Microbial Enzymatic Production of Algal Oligosaccharides for Nutraceutical Applications
(Springer, 2021)
Global requirement for algal foods is increasing, as they are progressively consumed for its nutrition and health. Macroalgae is a proven source of metabolites, proteins, pigments, bioactive compounds, and algal polysaccharides. ...
Ruthenium(II)-catalyzed synthesis of 2-arylbenzimidazole and 2-arylbenzothiazole in water
(Springer, 2021)
Benzimidazoles/benzothiazoles are heterocyclic compounds which contain a five membered heteroatom and a benzene ring. They constitute a crucial structural unit of numerous bioactive compounds and natural products. Since ...
Ecological and Biotechnological Aspects of Pigmented Microbes: A Way Forward in Development of Food and Pharmaceutical Grade Pigments
(MDPI AG, 2021)
Microbial pigments play multiple roles in the ecosystem construction, survival, and fitness of all kinds of organisms. Considerably, microbial (bacteria, fungi, yeast, and microalgae) pigments offer a wide array of food, ...
International pellet watch: Global monitoring of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in plastic resin pellets
(Japan Society for Environmental Chemistry, 2021)
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) were measured in plastic resin pellets collected from 65 beaches across 27 countries worldwide. They were detected at 49 locations at concentrations of the sum of 49 congeners of up ...
Multivariate assessment of outflow water quality in highly urbanized creek system: Implication of natural and anthropogenic processes
(Springer, 2021)
Nutrient source and transport study in tropical creeks adjacent to megacities are sparse on a regional and global scale. High-frequency chemical data collected during 2017-2018 in the Thane creek system, the largest ...
Impacts of variable nutrient stoichiometry (N, Si and P) on a coastal phytoplankton community from the SW Bay of Bengal, India
(Taylor and Francis, 2021)
The worldwide release of excessive nutrients (nitrogen [N], silicon [Si] and phosphorus [P]) into coastal waters is impacting phytoplankton growth and community structure. The coastal Bay of Bengal (BoB) is predicted to ...
Bioluminescence in aquatic and terrestrial organisms elicited through various kinds of stimulation
(Springer, 2021)
The term bioluminescence refers to a conspicuous light emission displayed by numerous aquatic and terrestrial organisms. This phenomenon has so far not been observed in several taxonomic groups like archaea, protista, ...
Isolation and characterization of marine bioluminescent bacteria for toxicity bioassays and biotechnological applications
(Springer, 2021)
Toxic heavy metals pollution posed severe health hazards to the environment and biodiversity. Therefore, the development of rapid and non-invasive bioassays is in the race to monitor toxic chemicals using novel approaches. ...
Evaluation of wave growth and bottom friction parameterization schemes in the SWAN based on wave modelling for the central west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2021)
In the present study, SWAN wave model is nested with Wavewatch 3 to reproduce waves off the central west coast of India using ERA-5 winds. The sensitivity of SWAN wave model was tested with different wave growth and bottom ...
Role of shamal and easterly winds on the wave characteristics off Qatar, central Arabian Gulf
(Elsevier, 2021)
Waves in the Arabian Gulf (Gulf) are dominated by shamal winds during winter and early summer. Although wave characteristics in the Gulf are broadly studied, features associated with various wind systems are not explicitly ...
