Thermal-tolerant potential of ordinary and the promotion of cell harvesting by heterotrophic cultivation at high temperature.

During the heterotrophic cultivation of microalgae, a cooled process against temperature rise caused by the metabolism of exogenous organic carbon sources greatly increases cultivation cost. Furthermore, microalgae harvesting is also a cost-consuming process. Cell harvesting efficiency is closely related to the characteristics of the algal cells.

One-step co-cultivation and flocculation of microalgae with filamentous fungi to valorize starch wastewater into high-value biomass.

A novel method of one-step co-cultivation and harvesting of microalgae and fungi, for efficient starch wastewater treatment and high-value biomass production was developed. By combination of Aspergillus oryzae and Chlorella pyrenoidosa, nutrients in wastewater could be converted to useful microbial biomass, while the wastewater was purified. Moreover, the microalgae C.

Alterations in the frequency of trinucleotide repeat dynamic mutations in offspring conceived through assisted reproductive technology.

Study Question: How does the frequency of trinucleotide repeat dynamic mutations in offspring conceived through assisted reproductive technology (ART) compare with the frequency of these mutations in control offspring conceived from spontaneous pregnancies?

Summary Answer: There is a slight increase in dynamic mutation instability in offspring conceived through ART compared with the naturally conceived offspring.

What Is Known Already: There is evidence to suggest that ART can increase the risk of birth defects and karyotypic abnormalities. However, the accumulating evidence of an association between ART and de novo genetic aberrations is controversial.
