20 results about "Sargassum" patented technology

Sargassum is a genus of brown (class Phaeophyceae) macroalgae (seaweed) in the order Fucales. Numerous species are distributed throughout the temperate and tropical oceans of the world, where they generally inhabit shallow water and coral reefs, and the genus is widely known for its planktonic (free-floating) species. Most species within the class Phaeophyceae are predominantly cold-water organisms that benefit from nutrients upwelling, but the genus Sargassum appears to be an exception. Any number of the normally benthic species may take on a planktonic, often pelagic existence after being removed from reefs during rough weather; however, two species (S. natans and S. fluitans) have become holopelagic—reproducing vegetatively and never attaching to the seafloor during their lifecycles. The Atlantic Ocean's Sargasso Sea was named after the algae, as it hosts a large amount of Sargassum.

Tropical Weather Event Weakening System

ActiveFR3164600A1Waterborne vesselsWeather influencing devicesCycloneOcean thermal energy conversion
This tropical cyclone weakening system involves, firstly, injecting cold water drawn from depths of at least 200 meters into the surface of seas and oceans, and secondly, injecting this water beneath a layer of sargassum seaweed to limit the warming of this deep water. This system operates primarily in areas of the North Atlantic where both the major cyclone tracks and sargassum beds are located. The aim is also to capture the sargassum at sea so that it no longer washes ashore. Furthermore, the system allows for continuous electricity production through its ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) plants and includes a sargassum collection system to utilize the harvested sargassum.

A c-terminal truncated alginate lyase and application thereof

A C-terminal truncated alginate lyase and its application. This invention belongs to the fields of bioengineering, genetic engineering, and enzyme engineering, and relates to a C-terminal truncated alginate lyase TY2 designed with molecular docking assistance, its encoding gene, recombinant vector, strain, and its application in the preparation of low-polymerization degree alginate oligosaccharides. Using wild-type MhAly6 as the parent, the truncation boundary was determined through structural prediction and molecular docking. A portion of the linker peptide was retained, and the C-terminal GH28 family domain was deleted to obtain the truncated form TY2. TY2 has approximately twice the specific activity of the wild-type enzyme, and even higher residual activity after incubation at 45°C for 1 hour, achieving a synergistic improvement in catalytic activity and thermal stability. + The relative enzyme activity reached 4.3 times that of the control group, which can degrade pretreated Sargassum powder. The product is mainly ΔDP2–ΔDP4 low-polymerization brown algae oligosaccharides, which are suitable for related enzymatic degradation and oligosaccharide preparation.

The invention is directed to a device that allows trolled lures (e.g., ballyhoo) to be used with decreased or eliminated snagging of the lure on grasses and weeds present in the water. The device includes a hollow, tubular body with a nose operably connected to a series of ribs via upper and / or lower arms. The connection of the ribs and arms create a tapered shape that mimics the head portion of an artificial or dead bait lure. The device further includes an upper channel that spans the length of the device, allowing fishing line to pass therethrough during use. One end of a hook guard (e.g., artificial worm) attaches to a peg positioned on the lower device arm. The second end of the hook guard slips over the point and barb of the fishing hook present on the lure. As a result, the sharp ends of the lure hook are prevented from being caught or hung by sargassum grass and other marine grasses (bay grass, sea grass, turtle grass, etc.).
