Article Synopsis
- Recent research highlights the importance of micronutrients, like copper and iron, alongside macronutrients in understanding harmful algal blooms (HABs).
- A study on cyanobacteria (Microcystis, Chlorella, and Desmodesmus) showed that these organisms adapt their production of compounds (chalkophores and siderophores) based on copper and iron availability, indicating a complex relationship between nutrient levels and algal health.
- The findings suggest that the production of the toxic compound microcystin by Microcystis is closely linked to copper and iron concentrations, proposing that availability of these micronutrients affects their productivity and energy management.
Burn injuries constitute one of the most serious accidental injuries. Increased metabolic rate is a hallmark feature of burn injury. Visualising lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity has been previously used to identify metabolic activity differences, hence cell viability and burn depth in burn skin.
