Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Gene
  • Enzyme

His main research concerns Cyanobacteria, Ecology, Microcystin, Botany and Microbiology. His Cyanobacteria study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Toxin and Biochemistry. His work deals with themes such as Zoology and Marine toxin, which intersect with Ecology.

His Microcystin research incorporates themes from Environmental chemistry, Microcystis aeruginosa, Hepatotoxin and Microcystis. His Botany research incorporates elements of Apoptosis, Oxidative damage and Cell cycle checkpoint. His studies in Microbiology integrate themes in fields like Aphanizomenon, Toxicity, Phylogenetic tree and Bacteria.

His most cited work include:

  • Molecular Mechanisms of Microcystin Toxicity in Animal Cells (326 citations)
  • Dynamics of microcystins in the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis. (167 citations)
  • Uptake and depuration of the heptapeptide toxin microcystin-LR in Mytilus galloprovincialis (155 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary scientific interests are in Cyanobacteria, Botany, Ecology, Microcystis aeruginosa and Microbiology. His study in Cyanobacteria is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Toxin and Food science. His study connects Ecotoxicology and Botany.

Vitor Vasconcelos interconnects Microbial ecology and Phylogenetics in the investigation of issues within Ecology. His Microcystis aeruginosa research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Environmental chemistry and Microcystin-LR. His Cylindrospermopsin study incorporates themes from Cyanotoxin and Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cyanobacteria (36.60%)
  • Botany (19.57%)
  • Ecology (18.09%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Cyanobacteria (36.60%)
  • Food science (7.45%)
  • Biochemistry (10.64%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Cyanobacteria, Food science, Biochemistry, Ecology and Biofilm are his primary areas of study. Vitor Vasconcelos interconnects Photosynthesis and Carotenoid in the investigation of issues within Cyanobacteria. The various areas that Vitor Vasconcelos examines in his Food science study include Stigeoclonium, Polyhydroxybutyrate and Antioxidant.

His work in Biofilm addresses subjects such as Chemical engineering, which are connected to disciplines such as Microorganism. His Microcystis aeruginosa research incorporates elements of Ecotoxicology, Minimum inhibitory concentration, Minimum bactericidal concentration and 16S ribosomal RNA. Vitor Vasconcelos specializes in Microcystin, namely Cyanotoxin.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Occurrence of Mycotoxins in Fish Feed and Its Effects: A Review (12 citations)
  • Essential oils from Moroccan plants as promising ecofriendly tools to control toxic cyanobacteria blooms (12 citations)
  • The relative importance of shear forces and surface hydrophobicity on biofilm formation by coccoid cyanobacteria (7 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Gene
  • Ecology
  • Enzyme

His scientific interests lie mostly in Cyanobacteria, Carotenoid, Food science, Aquaculture and Fouling. His Cyanobacteria study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Photosynthesis, Environmental engineering, Bioprocess, Chlorophyll a and Green algae. The study incorporates disciplines such as Chenopodium ambrosioides, Microcystis aeruginosa, Agar diffusion test, Antioxidant and Medicinal plants in addition to Food science.

His study with Chlorophyll fluorescence involves better knowledge in Botany. Port and Ecology are two areas of study in which Vitor Vasconcelos engages in interdisciplinary work. A large part of his Ecology studies is devoted to Taxonomy.
