Using chlorophyll (Chl) a fluorescence many aspects of the photosynthetic apparatus can be
studied, both in vitro and, noninvasively, in vivo. Complementary techniques can help to …

Chlorophyll a fluorescence is established as a rapid, non-intrusive technique to monitor
photosynthetic performance of plants and algae, as well as to analyze their protective …

Single-cell studies can help to understand individual differences and obtain atypical cellular
characteristics in view of cellular heterogeneity. Herein, the accumulation of mercury (Hg) in …

The antiepileptic drug carbamazapine (CBZ) readily persists in sewage-water treatment
plant wastewaters and finds its way into receiving water bodies. Our study sought to …

Triclosan is a commonly used bactericide that survives several degradation steps in WWTP
(wastewater treatment plants) and potentially reaches fluvial ecosystems. In Mediterranean …

The effluents of wastewater treatment plants (WWTP s) include a complex mixture of
nutrients and pollutants. Nutrients can subsidise autotrophic and heterotrophic organisms …

The growing use of plastics, including microplastics (MPs), has enhanced their potential
release into aquatic environments, where microalgae represent the basis of food webs. Due …

Alleviating the toxicity of mercury (Hg), improving the yield of Chlorella vulgaris (C. vulgaris)
biomass and fatty acids, purifying wastewater, and promoting carbon dioxide (CO 2) fixation …

The present review describes and discusses key interactions between mercury (Hg) and
phytoplankton to highlight the role of phytoplankton in the biogeochemical cycle of Hg and to …

The rise of human populations and the growth of cities contribute to the depletion of natural
resources, increase their cost, and create potential climatic changes. To overcome …
