Description
Summary:Magnetic nano- and microparticles have been successfully used in many areas of algae biotechnology, especially for harvesting of algal biomass, separation of algal biologically active compounds, immobilization of algal cells, removal of important xenobiotics using magnetically modified algae, or for the preparation of magnetic catalysts; alternatively, algae have been employed for the production of magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles. In this short review paper, the relevant data published in the period 2016–2019 are summarized.
