“…Both neat PLA ( Figure S1 ) and SVP-PLA patches exhibit a similar morphology composed of macroscale pores and microscale pin-lock type defects ( Figure 2 b). While the pore size of samples ranges from 250 µm to 400 μm, the size of pin-locks is around 30–40 µm [ 26 ]. On the other hand, on porous SVP-PLA composite patches, brownish residuals were also detected, which were not present on neat PLA.…”

“…In addition to its proven bioactivity against bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens, the proliferative effect of S. vulgare on some cell types has been also reported by several researchers [ 24 , 25 ]. Recently, it has been proclaimed that the S. vulgare -PLA composites could induce fibroblast proliferation and might be a feasible option in clinical practice such as guided tissue regeneration, connective tissue augmentation, and wound regeneration [ 26 ].…”

“…Macro-and microalgae are the latest sources of macromolecules and their alternative derivatives, such as carotenoid molecules found in the Chlorophyceae family, which includes microalgae Dunaliella, Chlorella, Muriellopsis, Haematococcus, and Chlamydomonas spp. (Berthon et al, 2017;Sayin et al, 2020;El-Chaghaby and Rashad, 2021). Furthermore, cyanobacteria also contain phycobiliproteins, accounting for 40% of these phycobiliproteins' overall dissolved protein content (El-Chaghaby and Rashad, 2021).…”

“…Membrane separation process is one of the most effective techniques to solve the water issues and has been widely deployed in various fields such as chemical engineering, food engineering and pharmaceutical industry as well. Up to now, the most membranes were prepared using polymeric materials such as polyamide (PA), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), poly­(ether sulfone) (PES), and cellulose acetate fiber (CA), whose features include easy processing, low cost, and excellent separation. Nevertheless, because of their poor biodegradability, waste membranes always cause secondary environmental problems, which are increasingly taken into account and researched. Ceramic materials were believed as an alternative that was easily regenerated at a high temperature. However, the high cost of ceramic materials hampers the wide application of ceramic membranes. , Most recently, biodegradable polymers have attracted lots of attention since they could be degradable with certain specific microorganisms or proteins while quite stable under service conditions. PLA is such a kind of biodegradable polymeric materials that has been widely deployed in a wide range of medical applications. , Because PLA contains plenty of hydrophobic functional groups such as methyl groups and ester groups, it shows strong hydrophobic property . This always leads to serious fouling when applied as separation membranes. , Several attempts have gone into reducing the hydrophobicity of PLA nanofiber membranes and the membrane fouling through tailoring the surface roughness, for example, introducing hydrophilic functional groups by incorporating TiO 2 nanoparticles.…”
