Targeted single-cell gene induction by optimizing the dually regulated CRE/ system by a newly defined heat-shock promoter and the steroid hormone in .

Multicellular organisms rely on intercellular communication systems to organize their cellular functions. In studies focusing on intercellular communication, the key experimental techniques include the generation of chimeric tissue using transgenic DNA recombination systems represented by the CRE/ system. If an experimental system enables the induction of chimeras at highly targeted cell(s), it will facilitate the reproducibility and precision of experiments.

Comparison of Areal Productivity of Nannochloropsis oceanica Between Lab-Scale and Industrial-Scale Raceway Pond.

The areal biomass productivities (g m day) of Nannochloropsis oceanica between different sizes of way ponds were compared. Sequential batch cultivation using 2-m, 20-m, and 200-m raceway ponds with an industrial scale 4000-m raceway as the main culture was conducted in summer and autumn during 2017 at Whyalla, Australia. Areal productivities of sequential batch cultivation during the same culture period were 8.
