Euglena, a simple, single-celled organism that grows in fresh water, trumpeted as a solution to food shortages, a potential replacement for fossil fuels and a way to reduce CO 2 emissions, has been ...

Scientists have discovered that <em>Euglena gracilis</em>, the single cell algae which inhabits most garden ponds, has a whole host of new, unclassified genes which ...

At first glance, it may seem hard to believe that the tiny green microorganism euglena, only 0.05 mm in length, has the potential to save the world. The single-celled organism, common to the diverse ...

The structure of Euglena granulata and Chlamydomonas eugametos has been studied using polarization and electron microscopy, cinematography, and chemical extraction procedures, with the main focus on ...

The film explores the origins and characteristics of protozoa, the first animals on Earth, which evolved from simple single-celled organisms. It discusses their size variations, locomotion methods, ...

Through genome editing using CRISPR/Cas9, researchers stably create euglena mutants that can produce wax esters with improved cold flow, making the esters suitable as feedstock for biofuels. News ...

Understanding metabolism in live microalgae is crucial for efficient biomaterial engineering, but conventional methods fail to evaluate heterogeneous populations of motile microalgae due to the ...

Large volumes of eyespot granules were isolated from homogenates of Euglena gracilis Klebs var. bacillaris Pringsheim by flotation centrifugation in a Beckman Ti-15 zonal rotor, and were further ...
