All donations DOUBLED! Cyanobacteria like Chonkus, sometimes referred to by the misnomer blue-green algae, are aquatic organisms that, suck up light and carbon dioxide and turn it into food ...
The modified cyanobacteria demonstrated ethanol production rates between 0.24 and 3.8 g/L over a period of 7–10 days. By ...
And the fact that cyanobacteria directly harvest carbon from their environment to grow means that they can couple the processes of carbon sequestration and biomanufacturing together in a single ...
If scientists can figure out how to genetically engineer it, this single-celled organism’s natural quirks could become supercharged into a low-waste carbon capture system. Cyanobacteria like ...
He won the top prize, which funded his early forays into applying his tools to cyanobacteria to investigate their potential to help fix and sequester carbon. Meanwhile, Tierney, who was then a ...
Four autotrophic carbon-fixation pathways were already known ... which is present in plants, algae, cyanobacteria and proteobacteria. A second autotrophic pathway (Arnon–Buchanan cycle) uses ...
The white dots are thought to store carbon. Credit: Wyss Institute at Harvard University Researchers have discovered a special strain of marine cyanobacteria that consume and store carbon dioxide ...
UTEX 3222 produced larger colonies than other known fast-growing cyanobacteria strains, and its individual cells were larger as well – thus the moniker Chonkus. It also grew to higher density than ...
