Green under siege: how the polyhexamethylene guanidine disinfectant attacks microalgae in aquatic ecosystems
In aquatic ecosystems, microalgae experience the adverse effects of the widely used disinfectant component, polyhexamethylene guanidine (PHMG). Our research focused on the model alga, Chlorella vulgaris, examining how PHMG exposure influences its growth, photosynthesis, metabolic byproducts, and ant...
