Journal articles written or co-written by Dr. Reza Razeghifard

Effects of nitrogen depletion on the biosorption capacities of Neochloris minuta and Neochloris alveolaris for five heavy metals (Dimitri Giarikos, Jessica Brown, Reza Razeghifard, et al.) Applied Water Science (2021)

Neochloris minuta and Neochloris alveolaris grown in nitrogen-rich (+ N) and nitrogen-depleted (-N) media were tested for their heavy metal maximum biosorption capacities (qmax) and adsorption percent efficiencies (R%). By removing nitrogen from the growth ...

Starch, Lipid, and Protein Accumulation in Nutrient-Stressed Microalgal Cells Studied Using Fourier Transform Infrared Microscopy (Gary Hastings, Jodian Thomas, Keillor Witt, et al.) Frontiers in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (2018)

Microalgae are fast growing organisms that can be used as feedstock for the production of biofuels. The metabolism of microalgae can be manipulated by exposing them to different environmental conditions for favoring the accumulation of ...

Photochemistry of Free and Bound Zn-Chlorophyll Analogues to Synthetic Peptides Depend on the Quinone and pH (Reza Razeghifard) Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology B: Biology (2015)

A synthetic peptide was used as a scaffold to bind Zn-Chlorophyll (ZnChl) analogues through histidine ligation to study their photochemistry in the presence of different type of quinones. The Chl analogues were chlorin e6 (Ce6), ...

Biofuels: The Benefits and Disadvantages as an Energy Source (Reza Razeghifard) CAHSS Intellectual Conversations (2014)

This lecture will present the good and evil of biofuels as energy sources. The U.S. ethanol and biodiesel production levels are expected to meet 17% of demand for transport fuel by 2021. Currently, the major ...

A P450 Metabolism Experiment for Undergraduate Biochemistry Laboratories (Reza Razeghifard, Catherine Chiafair and Dimitri Giarikos) Journal of Chemical Education (2014)

A laboratory experiment is described to provide students hands-on experience in learning some aspects of microsomal P450-catalyzed metabolism. Undergraduate students in the biochemistry laboratories detect and quantify the metabolites produced from butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) by ...

Algal Biofuels (Reza Razeghifard) Photosynthesis Research (2013)

The world is facing energy crisis and environmental issues due to the depletion of fossil fuels and increasing CO2 concentration in the atmosphere. Growing microalgae can contribute to practical solutions for these global problems because ...

Incorporation of Gas Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry into the Undergraduate Organic Chemistry Laboratory Curriculum (Dimitri Giarikos, Sagir Patel, Andrew Lister, et al.) Journal of Chemical Education (2013)

Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) is a powerful analytical tool for detection, identification, and quantification of many volatile organic compounds. However, many colleges and universities have not fully incorporated this technique into undergraduate teaching laboratories despite ...

Book and book contributions written or co-written by Dr. Reza Razeghifard

Microalgae for Energy (Reza Razeghifard) Chemistry and Physics Faculty Books and Book Chapters (2016)

Written by prominent scholars from industry, academia, and research institutions, the Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology presents a wide scope of articles on chemical substances—including their properties, manufacturing, and uses. It also focuses on industrial ...

Natural and Artificial Photosynthesis (Reza Razeghifard) Chemistry and Physics Faculty Books and Book Chapters (2013)

This technical book explores current and future applications of solar power as an unlimited source of energy that earth receives every day. Photosynthetic organisms have learned to utilize this abundant source of energy by converting ...
