Microalga-bacteria consortia are increasingly recognized for their effectiveness in wastewater treatment, leveraging the metabolic synergy between microalgae and bacteria to enhance nutrient removal and overall treatment efficiency. These systems offer a sustainable approach to addressing pollutants such as nitrogen and phosphorus. However, their potential in removing specific contaminants like steroid hormones is less explored.

The present work intends to compare two statistical classification methods using images as covariates and under the comparison criterion of the ROC curve. The first implemented procedure is based on exploring a mathematical-statistical model using multidimensional arrangements, frequently known as tensors. It is based on the theoretical framework of the high-dimensional generalized linear model.

Cardiovascular diseases are a rampant public health threat. Environmental contaminants, such as Cadmium (Cd), a toxic metal, have been linked to increased risk for cardiovascular diseases. Given that human exposure to Cd is increasing overtime, there is a need to develop new therapies to ameliorate Cd toxicity.
