Microalgae as a selenium vehicle for nutrition
Pires, Rita; Costa, Margarida; Pereira, Hugo; Cardoso, Helena; Ferreira, Luís; Lapa, Nuno; Silva, Joana; Ventura, MárciaRita Pires acknowledges the Ph.D. Fellowship 2022.12360.BNA, Ref CRM:001 1392 from Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia . Publisher Copyright: © The Author(s) 2024.; Selenium (Se) is essential for human and animal nutrition, playing a key role in antioxidant and immune functions. Organic Se is better for supplementation because it is more efficiently assimilated and less toxic than its inorganic form. Due to th...

Lanthanide-Based Organic Salts
Forte, Andreia; Gago, Sandra; Alves, Celso; Silva, Joana; Alves, Joana; Pedrosa, Rui; Laia, César A. T.; Marrucho, Isabel M.; Branco, Luís C.The formulation of magnetic ionic liquids (MILs) or organic salts based on lanthanides as anions has been explored. In this work, a set of choline-family-based salts, and two other, different cation families, were combined with Gadolinium(III) and Terbium(III) anions. Synthetic methodologies were previously optimized, and all organic salts were obtained as solids with melting temperatures higher than 100 °C. Th...
