Journal ArticleDOI

Single and mixture toxicity of pharmaceuticals and chlorophenols to freshwater algae Chlorella vulgaris

TL;DR: It can be concluded from this study that toxic mixture effects of all tested chemicals to C. vulgaris are higher than the individual effect of each mixture component.
Journal ArticleDOI

Homogenous and heterogenous advanced oxidation of two commercial reactive dyes.

TL;DR: The relative growth inhibition of the azo dye towards the marine algae Dunaliella tertiolecta that was initially 70%, did not exhibit an increase during the studied advanced oxidation reactions and complete detoxification at the end of the treatment period could be achieved for all investigated treatment processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exposure of Dunaliella tertiolecta to Lead and Aluminum: Toxicity and Effects on Ultrastructure

TL;DR: Aluminum and lead seem to act synergistically on the cell membrane leading to cell membrane lysis, as implied by the IC25 values and the environmental concentrations of the metals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Renewable fuels from pyrolysis of Dunaliella tertiolecta: An alternative approach to biochemical conversions of microalgae

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate that Dunaliella tertiolecta can be converted to bio-fuels via pyrolysis at temperatures significantly lower than terrestrial biomasses.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the aquatic toxicity of substituted phenols to Chlorella vulgaris: QSTR with an extended novel data set and interspecies models.

TL;DR: High quality, single source algal toxicity data, generated in the same laboratory according to a REACH compatible endpoint, provided a sound basis to explore quantitative structure-toxicity relationship (QSTR), which can be used for regulatory purposes.
