Article Synopsis
- - This study highlights the significance of controlled release of active ingredients, particularly in drug delivery and environmental applications, focusing on using alginate beads for modulated chemical release in marine environments.
- - Researchers examined multiple factors (like chitosan molecular weight, concentration, calcium concentration, drop height, and bead size) to analyze their effects on the diffusion rates of alginate beads, ultimately refining the analysis to key parameters.
- - The findings showed that bead size significantly impacted release rates while chitosan molecular weight had minimal influence; this research offers a novel design approach to enhance environmental applications and can guide future optimization efforts in similar scenarios.
Heterosigma akashiwo does not serve as prey and chloroplast donor for the toxic dinoflagellate, Dinophysis acuminata.

In laboratory culture, the toxic dinoflagellate Dinophysis acuminata acquires plastids from the ciliate, Mesodinium rubrum, which, in turn, acquires plastids from the cryptophyte, Teleaulax amphioxeia. Reports of D. acuminata from field samples found plastids of the raphidophyte, Heterosigma akashiwo within D.
