Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, entitled “Recent Research of Natural Products from Microalgae and Cyanobacteria”, presents a comprehensive overview of the latest research advancements concerning the exploration of the diverse array of bioactive compounds. Microalgae and cyanobacteria are renowned for their vast biochemical diversity and their potential for producing valuable natural products. This Special Issue highlights the cutting-edge research exploring various aspects of microalgae and cyanobacteria, including cultivation techniques, isolation, and the characterization of bioactive compounds, as well as their potential applications in pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, cosmeceuticals, biofuels, and industrial fields. The Issue also focuses on elucidating the biological activities of crude extracts and identified compounds, including antioxidant, antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, anticancer, antidiabetic, and anti-inflammatory activities. Through the collaboration of experts in the field, this Special Issue provides valuable insights into the potential of microalgae and cyanobacteria as sustainable sources of novel bioactive compounds, with diverse applications in biotechnology, medicine, therapeutics, and environmental sustainability.
