Article Abstract

This work reviews applications of high added value molecules produced from microalgae. Older forms of valorization - health food and quality feed, polyunsaturated fatty acids, pigments, carbohydrates - are currently penetrating their markets. They are driven by desirable properties: texturer and dye for food industry, antioxidant for cosmetics and the appetite of the general public for biosourced compounds. Most recent developments, such as peptides, vitamins, polyphenols, phytosterols and phytohormones, are struggling to meet their market and reach economical competitiveness. Still they are pushed forward by the very powerful driver that is pharmaceutical industry. In addition this work also proposes to link microalgae phyla and related potential applications. This is done through highlighting of which bioactive compounds can be found in which phyla. While some seem to be restricted to aquaculture, Cyanobacteria, Chlorophyta and Rhodophyta show great promises.

Recent progress of rapid detection technologies for mycotoxins.

Food Chem

September 2025

International Joint Research Laboratory for Biointerface and Biodetection, and School of Food Science and Technology, Jiangnan University, Wuxi, Jiangsu 214122, PR China. Electronic address:

Mycotoxins, due to their high carcinogenic and genotoxic properties, pose a significant threat to global food safety. Traditional detection methods often fall short in meeting the demands for large-scale, real-time, simple, and rapid monitoring. As a result, innovative rapid detection approaches, leveraging advanced materials and sensor technologies, are emerging as key solutions for preventing food contamination.

Personalized Interactive Music Systems for Physical Activity and Exercise: Exploratory Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

JMIR Hum Factors

September 2025

Department of Music, Arts and Culture Studies, Centre of Excellence in Music, Mind, Body and Brain, University of Jyväskylä, Seminaarinkatu 15, Jyväskylän yliopisto, Jyväskylä, 40014, Finland, 358 6643034.

Background: Personalized Interactive Music Systems (PIMSs) are emerging as promising devices for enhancing physical activity and exercise outcomes. By leveraging real-time data and adaptive technologies, PIMSs align musical features, such as tempo and genre, with users' physical activity patterns, including frequency and intensity, enhancing their overall experience.

Objective: This exploratory systematic review and meta-analysis evaluates the effectiveness of PIMSs across physical, psychophysical, and affective domains.

Optimal Dosage Characteristics of Recasting for Developmental Language Disorder: A Scoping Review.

J Speech Lang Hear Res

September 2025

School of Health Sciences, College of Health and Medicine, University of Tasmania, Launceston, Australia.

Purpose: The purpose of this scoping review was to map and summarize currently available evidence about optimal dosage of recasting for developmental language disorder (DLD).

Method: A systematic search of databases was completed, including Web of Science, Medline via OvidSP, PsycINFO, Cochrane Library, and Scopus. The inclusion criteria comprised the involvement of DLD intervention, the use of recasting alone or predominantly, and systematic manipulation of one or more dosage characteristics of recasting with the remaining parameters consistent across groups.
