From raw microalgae to bioplastics: conversion of Chlorella vulgaris starch granules into thermoplastic starch

A. Six, D. Dauvillee, C. Lancelon-Pin, A. Dimitriades-Lemaire, A. Compadre, C. Dubreuil, P. Alvarez, J.-F. Sassi, Y. Li-Beisson, J.-L. Putaux, N. Le Moigne, F. Gatien

This study develops a pilot-scale protocol to extract high-purity starch from Chlorella vulgaris and converts it into thermoplastic starch, showing improved mechanical properties compared to commercial starch-based TPS.

Quantifying topography-guided actin dynamics across scales using optical flow

R. M. Lee, L. Campanello, M. Hourwitz, P. Alvarez, A. Omidvar, J. T. Fourkas, W. Losert

The paper quantifies actin wave dynamics on periodic topographies using optical flow, finding similar nanotopography-guided actin behavior in two cell types despite differences in wave speed and morphology.
