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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

It could be the plot of a summer sci-fi blockbuster: A creature feeds on its prey and inherits its "superpower." Only this is real. Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest sci-tech news updates. A ...

Scientists have discovered the largest known protein in biology. Given the fun name of PKZILLA-1, the protein was found in algae cells and helps them make toxins that are responsible for mass killings ...

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 ...

“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 ...

Chloroplasts, the parts of cells that allow plants and algae to photosynthesize, are thought to have originated more than 1 billion years ago, when photosynthetic cyanobacteria lived symbiotically ...

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 ...

Brevard County officials are testing underwater soundwave technology to combat harmful algae blooms in the Indian River Lagoon. The year-long pilot project uses ultrasonic transducers to disrupt algae ...
