This document presents algae-derived antimicrobial fiber substrates, and a method of making the same. The fiber may be a synthetic fiber, but can also be formed as a cellulosic (e.g., cotton). In various implementations, an algae-derived antimicrobial fiber substrate can be made to have identical properties and characteristics of nylon-6 of nylon 6-6 polymer or the like, and yet contain antimicrobial, anti-viral, and/or flame retardant algal derived substances. Any of various species of red algae, brown algae, blue-green algae, and brown seaweed (marine microalgae and/or macroalgae) are known to contain a high level of sulfated polysaccharides with inherent antimicrobial, antiviral, and flame-retardant properties, and can be used as described herein. Additionally disclosed are algae-derived flexible foams, whether open-cell or closed-cell, with inherent antimicrobial, antiviral, and flame resistant properties. Further, a process of manufacturing is presented wherein the process may include one or more of the steps of: harvesting algae-biomass; sufficiently drying the algae biomass; blending the dried algae biomass with a carrier resin and various foaming ingredients; adding an algal-derived antimicrobial compound selected from various natural sulfated polysaccharides present in brown algae, red algae, and/or certain seaweeds (marine microalgae); and adding a sufficient quantity of dried algae biomass to the formulation to adequately create a fire resistant flexible foam material.

The disclosure discloses application of nanosulfur in tomato fusarium wilt control, belonging to the technical field of novel pesticides. The application of the disclosure includes the following steps: preparing a nanosulfur solution from nanosulfur; and then soaking seeds in the nanosulfur solution or applying the nanosulfur solution onto tomato foliage, and continuing cultivation to obtain tomato plants. The nanosulfur has a particle size of 20-150 nm. The nanosulfur solution uses water as a solvent and has a concentration of 30-200 mg/L. According to the disclosure, after the tomato plants are treated with the nanosulfur by foliar spraying, the fresh weight of the above-ground part is 1.05 times or more that of the disease group, and the fresh weight of the underground part is 1.05 times or more that of the disease group, so that the incidence of tomato fusarium wilt is reduced by 8% or more. After the tomato plants are treated with the nanosulfur by seed soaking, the fresh weight of the above-ground part is 1.38 times or more that of the disease group, and the fresh weight of the underground part is 1.05 times or more that of the disease group, so that the incidence of tomato fusarium wilt is reduced by 20% or more.
