Zinc and Nickel Accumulation in Unicellular Photosynthetic Algae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii Grown in Metal-contaminated Media

Zkeri E., Mavrakis E., Pergantis S., (Corresponding) Lydakis-Simantiris N.
Topic: 
Heavy metals in the environment
In this study, Zn and Ni accumulation in unicellular freshwater migroalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii was investigated. C. reinhardtii cells were grown in media polluted with several concentrations of either Zn or Ni. Tolerance of this organism to Zn and Ni pollution was examined and the growth...Read more

Selenate uptake by Chlamydomonas reinhardtii Algal Cells, its Transformation and its Effect on Membrane Lipid Profiles

Zkeri E., Mavrakis E., Panagou G., Grafanaki S., (Corresponding) Pergantis S., Lydakis-Simantiris N.
Topic: 
Heavy metals in the environment
While selenium (Se) has been demonstrated to be essential for the optimal growth of freshwater microalgae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [1], exposure to elevated concentrations of selenite (Se[IV]) or selenate (Se[VI]), the two major aqueous forms of Se, induce cell toxicity[2]. In this study,...Read more

Selenium accumulation in unicellular photosynthetic algae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and Thalassiosira weissflogii grown in Se-contaminated media

Zkeri E., Mavrakis E., Pergantis S., (Corresponding) Lydakis-Simantiris N.
Topic: 
Heavy metals in the environment
The objective of this study was to investigate the accumulation of Se (IV) and Se (VI) and their effect on the growth of two unicellular photosynthetic algae, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and Thalassiosira weissflogii. For this purpose, a cell growth rate experiment was conducted, in nutrient media...Read more
