Buffalo Green Monkey Cells

Buffalo Green Monkey Cells, commonly called BGMK cells, are a continuous kidney-derived cell line used to grow and detect viruses under controlled laboratory conditions. When a potentially contaminated environmental sample is added to a BGMK cell monolayer, susceptible viruses enter the cells, replicate, and may produce visible cytopathic effects such as changes in cell shape or detachment. These responses support the detection and study of enteric viruses in water and other environmental samples, helping researchers evaluate microbial contamination, assess treatment performance, and investigate viral persistence in the environment.

Green Algae

2025

Green algae, also referred to as chlorophytes, are different from red algae in having the chloroplasts containing chlorophylls a and b, which give them their distinct green hue. However, they lack phycobiliproteins, preventing them from developing the red or blue-green pigmentation seen in red algae. In terms of photosynthetic pigment composition, green algae closely resemble plants and share a close evolutionary relationship with them. Taxonomically Green algae belong to Phylum Chlorophyta in...
