Congratulations to Dr. Leonardo Ibarra-Castro and colleagues who published papers in Algal Research -"The effect of nitrogen limitation on carbohydrates and β-glucan accumulation in Nannochloropsis oculata" and in Revista de Biología Tropical - "Ontogeny of digestive enzymes in larvae of the Clown Anemonefish, Amphiprion ocellaris (Perciformes: Pomacentridae)."
Research results provide valuable information to researchers and private initiatives that are interested in the use of microalgal biomass in the field of biofuels or immunostimulants.
This research characterized the early development of digestive enzymes of A. ocellaris during larvae ontogeny.
