🌱  Exploring Microalgae Growth Under pH Variations Microalgae like   Scenedesmus rotundus   are tiny powerhouses of nature, capable of producing valuable metabolites while contributing to sustainable biotechnology. Researchers have been investigating how changes in pH affect their growth dynamics. By adjusting the pH of their cultivation environment, scientists can observe different growth phases lag, exponential, and stationary and understand how these microorganisms adapt to acidic or alkaline conditions. Monitoring these changes provides insights into optimizing biomass production for biofuels, nutraceuticals, and environmental  applications. 📊🧪 💧 Metabolite Production Across Growth Phases The production of metabolites in S. rotundus is highly influenced by the pH of its environment. During the exponential phase, cells are actively dividing and often produce primary metabolites like proteins and pigments. In contrast, the stationary phase favors the accumula...

🔬🌿  Stereoisomeric separation of flavonoids using two-dimensional supercritical fluid chromatography (2D-SFC) is a cutting-edge analytical strategy transforming how scientists distinguish closely related natural compounds. Flavonoids, found in plants and honey, often exist as stereoisomers molecules with the same chemical formula but different 3D orientations. This tiny structural difference can dramatically affect biological activity, antioxidant properties, and nutritional value. Using 2D-SFC allows rapid, efficient, and powerful separation, making it an ideal tool for high-complexity samples. ✨   🧪📈 A key breakthrough in this research , is identifying the most effective chiral columns for separating flavonoid stereoisomers with high precision and reproducibility. Selecting the right column improves resolution, reduces analysis time, and enhances sensitivity. With optimized chromatographic conditions, even trace-level flavonoid isomers can be detected and quantified. T...
