Mineral profile of edible algae Spirulina platensis
Spirulina platensis, is a photosynthetic, filamentous, spiral-shaped, multicellular and bluegreen micro alga. As it contains chlorophyll a, like higher plants, botanists classify it as a micro alga belonging to Cyanophyceae class; but according to bacteriologists it is a bacterium due to its prokaryotic structure. Mexicans (Aztecs) started using this microorganism as human food. Its chemical co...
متن کاملProtective Role of Spirulina platensis against Acute Deltamethrin-Induced Toxicity in Rats
Deltamethrin is a broad-spectrum synthetic pyrethroid insecticide and acaricide widely used for agricultural and veterinary purposes. However, its human and animal exposure leads to hepatonephrotoxicity. Therefore, the present study was undertaken to examine the hepatonephroprotective and antioxidant potential of Spirulina platensis against deltamethrin toxicity in male Wistar albino rats. Delt...
متن کاملA Study on Subchronic Inhalation Toxicity of 1-Chloropropane
This study was conducted to measure toxicity of 1-chloropropane (CAS No. : 540-54-5). According to the OECD Test Guideline 413 (Subchronic inhalation toxicity: 90-day study), SD rats were exposed to 0, 310, 1,250, and 5,000 ppm of 1-chloropropane for 6 h/day, 5 day/week for 13 weeks via whole-body inhalation. Mortality, clinical signs, body weights, food consumption, motor activity, ophthalmosc...
متن کاملOPTIMIZATION OF BIOMASS PRODUCTION OF Spirulina platensis IN SEAWATER MEDIUM
Spirulina platensis is one of the most potential sources of natural nutrition. The present study was aimed to optimize the parameters like nitrogen sources, pH, temperature and light intensity for increasing the production of Spirulina platensis biomass (dry weight), protein, lipid and chlorophyll-a in seawater medium. The production of Spirulina platensis was optimized in terms of biomass and ...
متن کاملFunctional Bioactive Compounds and Biological Activities of Spirulina platensis Lipids
Ramadan M.F., Asker M.M.S., Ibrahim Z.K. (2008): Functional bioactive compounds and biological activities of Spirulina platensis lipids. Czech J. Food. Sci., 26: 211–222. The compositions and concentrations of lipid classes, fatty acids, tocopherols were determined in the lipids from blue-green microalga Spirulina platensis. Total lipids (TL) recovered using chloroform: methanol (2:1, v/v) were...
