The rapid identification of algae species is not only of practical importance when monitoring unwanted adverse effects such as eutrophication, but also when assessing the water quality of watersheds. Here, we demonstrate a lab-on-a-chip that functions as a ...
A sensor arrangement (1) and a method for the permanent remote monitoring of water quality in a water supply line (2) is disclosed. The sensor arrangement (1) comprises a number of sensors (3) for the detection of different attributes of water quality and ...
Water quality issues are a major challenge that humanity is facing in the twenty-first century. Here, we review the main groups of aquatic contaminants, their effects on human health, and approaches to mitigate pollution of freshwater resources. Emphasis i ...
Harmful algal blooms in both freshwater and marine environments pose significant challenges for humans, livestock and aquatic food webs. Over the last 50 years, several authors proposed that small mol. iron chelators (siderophores) could be responsible for ...
In this paper, we will report our recent development of a new type of OptoFluidic Microscope (OFM) that is capable of delivering resolution beyond the diffraction limit of light. Accurate control of the sample translation is accomplished by adopting an opt ...
The increasing worldwide contamination of freshwater systems with thousands of industrial and natural chemical compounds is one of the key environmental problems facing humanity. Although most of these compounds are present at low concentrations, many of t ...
We investigated the interactions of dissolved reactive phosphorus (DRP) and dissolved nonreactive phosphorus (DNRP) with suspended and settled aquatic particles. The sorption to minerogenic particles from an alpine catchment collected in rivers, hydropower ...
The aim of this work is the modelling of the effects of a pollutant on an organism including time as a variable. The model developed will permit the evaluation of the toxicity globally, at short or long term, for low or high concentrations. This approach w ...
Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology, Jena, Germany. This review covers the research on brown algal pheromones from the first structural characterisation of an active principle in 1971 to the recent detailed insight into their biosynthesis. Developmen ...
Human activity results in the production of a wide range of pollutants that can enter the water cycle through stormwater or wastewater. Among others, heavy metals are still detected in high concentrations around urban areas and their impact on aquatic orga ...
