Azolla is a freshwater floating aquatic fern found in the tropical, subtropical and temperate regions with a high nitrogen-fixing rate from the result of symbiotic relationship with the blue-green cyanobacterium, Anabaena azollae. Azolla can effectively remediate aquaculture wastewater owing to its high production capacity and the ability to absorb nutrients and toxic compounds. The Azolla biomass generated as a by-product is currently underutilized and could potentially benefit the aquafeed industry in replacing the unfeasible and expensive fishmeal protein at a certain level.

One-pot synthetic method was adopted to prepare three isomers 4-(fluorophenyl)thiosemi- carbazide), 4-(fluorophenyl)thiosemicarbazide and 4-(fluorophenyl)thiosemicarbazide. The products were obtained in ethanolic solution from a reaction between and derivatives of fluorophenyl isothiocyanate and hydrazine hydrate. This work presents the theoretical Molecular Electrostatic Potential (MEP) and Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital-Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital (HOMO-LUMO) computational data through Gaussview 5.

To study the effect of two different microemulsions containing supplements composed of nerolidool, selenium and vitamin E on absorption effect related to skin health and skin aging. A total of 39 volunteers with normal and healthy skin were divided into three groups ( = 13) and supplemented for a period of 12 weeks. Group 1 received a mixture of lutein (3 mg/day), lycopene (3 mg/day), α-tocopherol (10 mg/day), selenium (75 μg/day) and β-nerolidool (4.
