Journal ArticleDOI

Plasmid-Mediated Quinolone Resistance (PMQR) Genes and Class 1 Integrons in Quinolone-Resistant Marine Bacteria and Clinical Isolates of Escherichia coli from an Aquacultural Area.

Alexandra Tomova, +5 more
- 01 Jan 2018 - 
TL;DR: The observed commonality of quinolone resistance genes and integrons suggests that aquacultural use of antimicrobials might facilitate horizontal gene transfer between bacteria in diverse ecological locations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Scaling up bioethanol production from the farmed brown macroalga Macrocystis pyrifera in Chile

Carolina Camus, +5 more
- 01 Sep 2016 - 
TL;DR: Based on a giant kelp farming and bioethanol production program carried out in Chile, a four-stage process model for scaling up is developed, including acid leaching, depolymerization, saccharification, and fermentation steps, to make the most of the carbohydrates available for fermentation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experiments on an integrated aquaculture system (seaweeds and marine fish) on the Red Sea coast of Saudi Arabia: efficiency comparison of two local seaweed species for nutrient biofiltration and production

Yousef S. Al-Hafedh, +3 more
- 01 Mar 2012 - 
TL;DR: Both seaweeds are suitable for integrated aquaculture and bioremediation, but G. arcuata has relatively higher growth potential.
Journal ArticleDOI

Germplasm banking of the giant kelp: Our biological insurance in a changing environment

Sara Barrento, +3 more
- 01 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: A germplasm bank based on the genetic diversity of M. pyrifera from Chile is developed and it is shown for the first time gametophyte viability up to 89% and viability differences between genetic populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental indoor cultivation of the carrageenophytic red alga Gigartina skottsbergii

Alejandro H. Buschmann, +6 more
- 26 Nov 2004 - 
TL;DR: The light, temperature, and nutrient requirements for juvenile G. skottsbergii cultivation are determined, as well as the culture system and stocking densities required to optimize its indoor cultivation.
