Research

Plankton lab members are interested in:

• Ecological studies of algae, especially on the uses of microalgae as bioindicator to infer water quality characteristics.

•  Algal bioassay to study the phytochemical and nutritional values of microalgae.

• The biological activity of microalgae for bioremediation of environmental pollutants.

Our research will never be accomplished without the help and support from our co-researchers:
