Algae as Bio-Fertilizer
Abstract: Bio-fertilization represents a sustainable agricultural practice that leverages bio-fertilizers to enhance soil nutrient levels, thereby increasing agricultural productivity eco-friendly and feasible substitute for pollution-free agricultural applications, soil microflora has been used to increase biomass production and improve soil fertility. Numerous cyanobacteria, including species like Oscillatoria angustissima, Nostoc sp., and Anabaena sp., are known to be efficient nitrogen-fixing biofertilizers. Acuteodesmus dimorphus, Spirulina platensis, Chlorella vulgaris, Scenedesmus dimorphus, Anabaena azolla, and Nostoc …

A New Protocol for Analysis of Metal Absorption Capacity of Cyanobacteria
Abstract: Cyanobacteria are one of the microorganisms that have high potential for removing heavy metals from the soil and water. They can sequester heavy metal ions in a short period of time through adsorption and absorption mechanisms .In the present investigation, we have studied about metal absorption capacity of cyanobacteria using new method and new instrument Electrolyter-1005,developed by the authors. From the result, it was concluded that Calothrix sp. is more …
