Abstract
Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are natural polymers secreted by microorganisms and represent a key chemical for the development of a range of circular economy applications. The production of EPS comes with notable challenges such as downstream processing. In this work, a three-phase partitioning (TPP) system was investigated as a fractionation technique for the separation of polysaccharides and proteins, both present in the EPS culture broth. The effect of the type of phase-forming compounds (alcohol, polymer, or ionic liquid, in combination with salt) and its concentration were evaluated and compared to the results previously obtained with model systems. The recyclability of phase-forming compounds used to form the fractionation platform was assessed by ultrafiltration. The best fractionation of EPS was achieved using a TPP system composed of 23 wt % ethanol and 25% K3C6H5O7 as 82% EPS-PS partitioned to the salt-rich/bottom phase, and 76% EPS-PN was recovered as an interfacial precipitate, which could be readily resolubilized in water. This represented an increase of 1.24 and 2.83-fold in the purity of EPS-PS and EPS-PN, respectively, in relation to the initial feed concentration. Finally, high recovery yields of phase-forming compounds (>99%) and fractionated EPS (>80%) were obtained using ultrafiltration/diafiltration (UF/DF) as the regeneration technique. The substantial fractionation yields, selectivity, and recyclability of the phase-forming compounds confirm the potential of TPP systems in combination with UF/DF as the separation method for real biopolymer mixtures. Key contributions of this study include the demonstration of the applicability of a readily scalable and cost-effective separation technique for the fractionation of EPS from real EPS-containing broths, while also the limitations of prescreening with model systems became clear through the observed deviating trends between model system studies and real broth studies.

Abstract
Advanced materials used in the biomedicine field comprises a diverse group of organic molecules, including polymers, polysaccharides, and proteins. A significant trend in this area is the design of new micro/nano gels whose small size, physical stability, biocompatibility, and bioactivity could lead to new applications. Herein a new synthesis route is described to obtain core-shell microgels based on chitosan and Porphyridium exopolysaccharides (EPS) crosslinked with sodium tripolyphosphate (TPP). First, the synthesis of EPS-chitosan gels through ionic interactions was explored, leading to the formation of unstable gels. Alternatively, the use of TTP as crosslinker agent led to stable core-shell structures. The influence of reaction temperature, sonication time, and exopolysaccharide concentration, pH and TPP concentration were determined as a function of particle size and polydispersity index (PDI). The obtained EPS-chitosan gels were characterized by TEM, TGA, and FTIR; followed by the assessment of protein load capacity, stability upon freezing, cytotoxicity, and mucoadhesivity. Experimentation revealed that the core-shell particles size ranges 100-300 nm, have a 52 % loading capacity for BSA and a < 90 % mucoadhesivity, and no toxic effects in mammalian cell cultures. The potential application of the obtained microgels in the biomedical field is discussed.

Abstract
Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is a human infectious agent with significant impact on public health due to its high prevalence in the population and its ability to elicit a wide range of diseases, from mild to severe. Although several antiviral drugs, such as acyclovir, are currently available to treat HSV-2-related clinical manifestations, their effectiveness is poor. Therefore, the identification and development of new antiviral drugs against HSV-2 is necessary. Seaweeds are attractive candidates for such purposes because they are a vast source of natural products due to their highly diverse compounds, many with demonstrated biological activity. In this study, we evaluated the in vitro antiviral potential of red algae extracts obtained from Agarophyton chilense, Mazzaella laminarioides, Porphyridium cruentum, and Porphyridium purpureum against HSV-2. The phycocolloids agar and carrageenan obtained from the macroalgae dry biomass of A. chilense and M. laminarioides and the exopolysaccharides from P. cruentum and P. purpureum were evaluated. The cytotoxicity of these extracts and the surpluses obtained in the extraction process of the agar and carrageenans were evaluated in human epithelial cells (HeLa cells) in addition to their antiviral activity against HSV-2, which were used to calculate selectivity indexes (SIs). Several compounds displayed antiviral activity against HSV-2, but carrageenans were not considered as a potential antiviral therapeutic agent when compared to the other algae extracts with a SI of 23.3. Future assays in vivo models for HSV-2 infection should reveal the therapeutic potential of these algae compounds as new antivirals against this virus.

Abstract
Due to the increase in industrial demand for new biosourced molecules (notably bioactive exopolysaccharides (EPS)), microalgae are gaining popularity because of their nutraceutical potential and benefits health. Such health effects are delivered by specific secondary metabolites, e.g., pigments, exopolysaccharides, polyunsaturated fatty acids, proteins, and glycolipids. These are suitable for the subsequent uses in cosmetic, nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, biofuels, biological waste treatment, animal feed and food fields. In this regard, a special focus has been given in this review to describe the various methods used for extraction and purification of polysaccharides. The second part of the review provides an up-to-date and comprehensive summary of parameters affecting the microalgae growth and insights to maximize the metabolic output by understanding the intricacies of algal development and polysaccharides production. In the ultimate part, the health and nutraceutical claims associated with marine algal bioactive polysaccharides, explaining their noticeable potential for biotechnological applications, are summarized and comprehensively discussed.

Abstract
In the present work, optimized ultrafiltration conditions, using a ceramic multi tubular titania membrane (150 KDa), were investigated for the treatment of tuna cooking juice, for water reuse in the industrial process. The interactive effects of the volume concentrating factor (VCF) (1.03-4.25), feed temperature (T) (20-60 °C), and applied transmembrane pressure (ΔP) (2-5 bar) on protein removal (R protein) and permeate flux (J) were determined. A Box-Behnken experimental design (BBD) with the response surface methodology (RSM) was used for statistical analysis, modeling, and optimization of the operating conditions. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) results proved that the protein removal and permeate flux were significant and represented good correlation coefficients of 0.9859 and 0.9294, respectively. Mathematical modeling showed that the best conditions were VCF = 1.5 and a feed temperature of 60 °C, under a transmembrane pressure of 5 bar. The fouling mechanism was checked by applying a polarization concentration model. Determination of the gel concentration confirmed the results found in the mass balance calculation and proved that the VCF must not exceed 1.5. The membrane regeneration efficiency was proven by determining the water permeability after the chemical cleaning process.

Abstract
This work aims at studying the techno-economic feasibility to produce an extract, at a small industrial-production scale, from a Tisochrysis lutea's paste, in view of cosmetic applications. The paste was first thawed, diluted and centrifuged to get a crude water extract. Then, two successive stages of membrane filtration were carried out: the first one to essentially remove/retain the particles (cellular debris) by microfiltration and the second one to concentrate (ultrafiltration) the soluble compounds of the permeate from the previous step. The robustness of the processing chain has been demonstrated following the production of three similar extracts with more than 30 L input material each. Around 54% of the final extract was composed of proteins and carbohydrates. The final ingredient was assessed for genomic activity and showed multiple positive responses. Finally, an economic analysis was performed, which demonstrated that the major cost is linked to centrifugation step. The total manpower represents the highest cost of the OPEX categories.

Abstract
The present work aimed to characterize the exopolysaccharide obtained from water kefir grains (EPSwk), a symbiotic association of probiotic microorganisms. New findings of the technological, mechanical, and biological properties of the sample were studied. The EPSwk polymer presented an Mw of 6.35 × 105 Da. The biopolymer also showed microcrystalline structure and characteristic thermal stability with maximum thermal degradation at 250 °C. The analysis of the monosaccharides of the EPSwk by gas chromatography demonstrated that the material is composed of glucose units (98 mol%). Additionally, EPSwk exhibited excellent emulsifying properties, film-forming ability, a low photodegradation rate (3.8%), and good mucoadhesive properties (adhesion Fmax of 1.065 N). EPSwk presented cytocompatibility and antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The results of this study expand the potential application of the exopolysaccharide from water kefir as a potential clean-label raw material for pharmaceutical, biomedical, and cosmetic applications.

Abstract
Microalgae are used in flocculation processes because biopolymers are released into the culture medium. Microalgal cell growth under specific conditions (temperature, pH, luminosity, nutrients, and salinity) provides the production and release of exopolysaccharides (EPS). These biopolymers can be recovered from the medium for application as bioflocculants or used directly in cultivation as microalgae autoflocculants. The optimization of nutritional parameters, the control of process conditions, and the possibility of scaling up allow the production and industrial application of microalgal EPS. Therefore, this review addresses the potential use of EPS produced by microalgae in bioflocculation. The recovery, determination, and quantification techniques for these biopolymers are also addressed. Moreover, other technological applications of EPS are highlighted.

Abstract
Sulfated exopolysaccharides (EPS) from Porphyridium cruentum strain were extracted and their antioxidant and anti-bacterial potentials were evaluated based on DPPH free radical, ABTS•+ radical cation and DNA nicking assays, and against four foodborne pathogenic bacteria, respectively. They showed also interesting functional, foaming and emulsion properties. Moreover, microbiological and chemical effects of EPS at 0.5, 1 and 2% on refrigerated minced beef meat were undertaken. Chemical analyses revealed that the treated meat underwent significant decrease (P < 0.05) of primary and secondary lipid oxidation. By the end of the storage period, exopolysaccharides at 2% reduced the metmyoglobin and carbonyl group accumulation compared to control samples and were more efficient (P < 0.05) against microflora proliferation. Furthermore, two multivariate exploratory techniques namely Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Hierarchical Cluster Analysis (HCA) were applied successfully to all obtained data describing the main characteristics attributed to refrigerated meat samples. Overall, these findings indicated that EPS from P. cruentum are worthy being developed as functional and bioactive components for the meat industry.

Abstract
In this study, semi-continuous immobilized cultivation of Porphyridium cruentum through calcium alginate beads was performed for sulfated polysaccharides (SPs) production. The cell biomass and daily SPs productivity in the calcium alginate bead immobilized culture were increased by up to 79 ± 3.4% and 45.6 ± 3.2%, compared to those in the control, respectively. Furthermore, simultaneous application of immobilization and blue wavelength illumination further increased the phycobiliproteins content by 260 ± 9%, compared to those in the control. Similarly, nutrient deficiencies in combination with immobilization increased daily SPs productivity by about twice that of the control. The chemical composition and biological activity of the extracellular polymeric substances produced through immobilization were similar to those of the control. This study suggests the potential application of calcium alginate beads-based immobilization for continuous and high-efficiency SPs production using P. cruentum.

Abstract
The interest in microalgae production deals with its role as the third generation of feedstock to recover renewable energy. Today, there is a need to analyze the ultimate research and advances in recovering the microalgae biomass from the culture medium. Therefore, this review brings the current research developments (over the last three years) in the field of harvesting microalgae using membrane-based technologies (including microfiltration, ultrafiltration and forward osmosis). Initially, the principles of membrane technologies are given to outline the main parameters influencing their operation. The main strategies adopted by the research community for the harvesting of microalgae using membranes are subsequently addressed, paying particular attention to the novel achievements made for improving filtration performance and alleviating fouling. Moreover, this contribution also gives an overview of the advantages of applying membrane technologies for the efficient extraction of the high added-value compounds in microalgae cells, such as lipids, proteins and carbohydrates, which together with the production of renewable biofuels could boost the development of more sustainable and cost-effective microalgae biorefineries.

Abstract
Membranes have a lot of potential for harvesting microalgae, but mainly membrane fouling and high harvesting costs linked to low fluxes are hampering their breakthrough. Patterned membranes can reduce fouling by enchancing local turbulences close to the membrane surface on one hand, and by increasing the active area per m2 of installed membrane on the other. Flocculation can further increase membrane permeance by increasing microalgal partical size and reducing the fraction of free organic matter in the feed. In current study, the effect of polyethylene glycol (PEG) in the casting solution of patterned polysulfone membranes was investigated to better tune the performance of the patterned membranes, together with the effects of cross-flow velocity and chitosan dosage on membrane fouling. The energy consumption and total harvesting cost, extrapolated to a full-scale microalgal harvesting, were then estimated. The patterned membrane prepared with a 28w% PEG concentration showed the highest clean water permeance (900±22 L/m2 h bar) and membrane permeance in a microalgal suspension (590±17 L/m2 h bar). Patterned membranes showed a lower filtration resistance (15% permeance decline at the end of filtration) than flat membranes (72%) at a cross-flow velocity of 0.0025 m/s. Increasing cross-flow velocity could increase membrane permeance in most cases. The highest stable membrane permeance (110±17 L/m2 h bar) and the lowest filtration resistance were achieved when combining patterned membrane filtration with flocculation at optimized chitosan dosage. A very low energy consumption (0.28 kWh/kg) and harvesting cost (0.16 €/kg) were achieved under these conditions.

Abstract
Exopolysaccharide (EPS) from marine microalgae are promising sources of a new generation of drugs. However, lot of them remain to be discovered and tested. In this study, EPS produced by Porphyridium marinum and its oligomers prepared by High Pressure Homogenizer have been tested for different biological activities, i.e., antibacterial, anti-fungal and antibiofilm activities on Candida albicans, as well as for their effects on the viability of murine breast cancer cells. Results have shown that all EPS samples present some biological activity. For antibacterial and antibiofilm activities, the native EPS exhibited a better efficiency with Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) from 62.5 µg/mL to 1000 µg/mL depending on the bacterial strain. For Candida albicans, the biofilm formation was reduced by about 90% by using only a 31.3 µg/mL concentration. Concerning breast cancer cells, lower molar masses fractions appeared to be more efficient, with a reduction of viability of up to 55%. Finally, analyses of polymers composition and viscosity measurements were conducted on all samples, in order to propose hypotheses involving the activities caused by the intrinsic properties of polymers.

Abstract
Exopolysaccharides are secondary metabolites produced by microorganisms and are a subject of research in many fields of science and industry due to some of their confirmed properties, especially in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical areas. In this context, the objectives of this work were to evaluate the potential of Fusarium fujikuroi for producing exopolysaccharides and to concentrate such compounds in order to increase the herbicidal activity. Exopolysaccharides were produced by submerged fermentation and different concentration methods (membranes, lyophilization, and evaporation) were evaluated. The phytotoxic effects were assessed through absorption assays in detached leaves of Cucumis sativus and evaluated on the seventh day after application. The surface tension was evaluated for each concentration method. The production of exopolysaccharides in the crude broth without concentration was 5.94 g/L. When using the lyophilization method, a maximum yield of exopolysaccharides of 10.64 g/L was obtained. The membranes also presented satisfactory results of exopolysaccharides: 9.60 g/L. The increase of bioherbicidal activity and the lower surface tension are proportionally related to the increase of the concentration of exopolysaccharides.

Abstract
The effect of co-cultivation of Porphyridium cruentum UTEX 161 with Pseudoalteromonas sp. MEBiC 03485 on P. cruentum growth and its sulfated polysaccharide (EPS) production were examined. The strain MEBiC 03485 had beneficial effects on P. cruentum growth, EPS production, and EPS quality. These effects were due to a compound secreted by the strain MEBiC 03485. Notably, secretory compound treatment also increased intracellular phycoerythrin and phycocyanin content by 89.4% and 161%, respectively. In addition, the biological activities of EPS extracted from MEBiC 03485 treatment tended to be higher than the control without treatment. Our results suggest a novel approach for potentially enhancing the growth of P. cruentum and its EPS production and quality by co-culturing with the symbiotic strain MEBiC 03485.

Abstract
The red microalga Porphyridium cruentum is exploited industrially for its exopolysaccharides (EPS) and pigments production. EPS produced by P. cruentum are partially released and dissolved into the surrounding environment, they can be recovered from the culture medium after removing the cells. This paper presents a parametric study of the ultrafiltration of EPS solutions on organic membrane. The EPS solutions were produced in conditions representative of an industrial production. They were filtered at lab-scale on a flat, PES 50 kDa MWCO membrane in a complete recirculation mode of permeate and retentate. Permeate flux-transmembrane pressure (TMP) curves were established up to the limiting flux for the filtration of solutions with various values of concentration in EPS (0.10-1.06 kg GlcEq m-3), fluid tangential velocity (0.3-1.2 m s-1) and temperature (20°C and 40°C). The reversible and irreversible parts of fouling were evaluated for each experiment and the critical flux was determined for an intermediate EPS concentration (0.16 kg GlcEq m-3). The results showed that EPS solutions had a strong fouling capacity. When filtering the lowest concentrated solution (0.10 kg GlcEq m-3) with moderate fouling conditions, the overall fouling resistance was approximately half of the membrane and the share of irreversible/reversible fouling was 88% and 12%. However, the part of reversible fouling becomes predominant when approaching the limiting flux. Permeate fluxes which were obtained allow to estimate that a VRR of approximately 10 could be obtained when concentrating EPS solutions using PES membranes in flat or tubular modules but not in spiral-wound.

Abstract
Porphyridium spp. are a group of unicellular marine microalgae belonging to the Rhodophyta, which evolved over one billion years and are a source of a variety of natural active components. They can naturally and efficiently accumulate phycobilin, sulfated polysaccharides, polyunsaturated fatty acids and other bioactive substances. At present, numerous attempts have been made to explore the species Porphyridium spp., whereas mainly focused on cultivation methods, metabolism regulation and the function and application of bioactive products. There is a lack of systematic summary of the existing research conclusions. In this paper, we summarized the representative results related to culture and metabolism, analyzed and discussed the existing bottleneck restrictions for their large scale application, and proposed the potential industrial development and research direction in the future. This paper is expected to provide reference and thread for research and application of Porphyridium spp..
