Algaltechnology on Instagram‎: "🌍💚 Carbon Dioxide Biofixation by Microalgae Tiny Organisms, Massive Climate Impact! Microalgae are microscopic photosynthetic powerhouses capable of capturing carbon dioxide (CO₂) far more efficiently than terrestrial plants 🌿. 🔬 How does it work? Through photosynthesis, microalgae convert CO₂, sunlight ☀️, and nutrients into biomass, releasing oxygen as a byproduct. 🚀 Why are microalgae game-changers? ⚡ Up to 10–50 times higher CO₂ fixation rates than land p

Cultivation of green microalgae as a biofuel source. Camera turns down.

Rooted Science🍀 on Instagram: "🌱 Growing Microalgae in the Lab🌱 As a researcher, working with microalgae feels like caring for tiny green factories. These single-celled organisms may be microscopic, but they hold immense potential—from biofuels to pharmaceuticals. 🔬 Isolation: We usually start by collecting water samples from ponds, rivers, or soil. To isolate microalgae, we use techniques like serial dilution, streak plating on agar, or micropipette picking under a microscope. The goal is t
