“…The microalgae species were selected based on its abundance among the microalgae of the Sea of Japan [60], and its suitability as test objects in ecotoxicology [59,[61][62][63]. Earlier, we confirmed the sensitivity of used microalgae species as test organisms with common reference toxicant potassium dichromate [58].…”

“…The toxicity bioassay of NPs was carried out on four marine microalgae: two types of diatom species Attheya ussuriensis [53] and Chaetoceros muelleri [54], a raphidophyte Heterosigma akashiwo [55], and a red algae Porphyridium purpureum [56]. Culturing of microalgae and toxicity test conditions were maintained in accordance with the OECD Guidelines for the Testing of Chemicals, STest No.201 [57] with minor modifications as previously described [58,59].…”

Nanoparticles (NPs) have various applications in medicine, cosmetics, optics, catalysis, environmental purification, and other areas nowadays. With an increasing annual production of NPs, the risks of their harmful influence to the environment and human health is rising. Currently, our knowledge about the mechanisms of interaction between NPs and living organisms is limited. Additionally, poor understanding of how physical and chemical characteristic and different conditions influence the toxicity of NPs restrict our attempts to develop the standards and regulations which might allow us to maintain safe living conditions. The marine species and their habitat environment are under continuous stress due to anthropogenic activities which result in the appearance of NPs in the aquatic environment. Our study aimed to evaluate and compare biochemical effects caused by the influence of different types of carbon nanotubes, carbon nanofibers, and silica nanotubes on four marine microalgae species. We evaluated the changes in growth-rate, esterase activity, membrane polarization, and size changes of microalgae cells using flow cytometry method. Our results demonstrated that toxic effects caused by the carbon nanotubes strongly correlated with the content of heavy metal impurities in the NPs. More hydrophobic carbon NPs with less ordered structure had a higher impact on the red microalgae P. purpureum because of higher adherence between the particles and mucous covering of the algae. Silica NPs caused significant inhibition of microalgae growth-rate predominantly produced by mechanical influence.

“…(250). Consequently, it can result in injuries, fatalities, partial material loss, oil, or fuel spills, which would have a negative influence on soil or water environment (242,251,252). The current understanding of biodiesel fate, transport, and bioremediation in the environment was discussed in several state-of-the-art reviews (253,254).…”

Although fossil fuels remain the main source of energy, the volume of renewable sources of energy is constantly increasing. Biodiesel is a promising alternative fuel due to the number of advantages compared to fossil fuel and other types of biofuel. The specific objective of this study was to identify the difference between conventional and novel technologies applied during the whole life cycle of biodiesel production and consumption. The study offers some important insights into the recent advances in the biodiesel industry including biodiesel production from microalgal lipids, advanced homogenous and enzymatic transesterification, non-catalytic supercritical transesterification, application of microwave and ultrasound assisting technologies. Considering all the factors affecting the efficiency and safety of the biodiesel production process, here we reviewed the main principals and recent achievements in the environmental life cycle assessment of biodiesel production and consumption.
