In the dynamic realm of healthcare, the convergence of engineering and biomedical sciences has emerged as a pivotal frontier. In this review we go into specific areas of innovation, including medical imaging and diagnosis, developments in biomedical sensors, and drug delivery systems. Wearable biosensors, non-wearable biosensors, and biochips, which include gene chips, protein chips, and cell chips, are all included in the scope of the topic that pertains to biomedical sensors. Extensive research is conducted on drug delivery systems, spanning topics such as the integration of computer modeling, the optimization of drug formulations, and the design of delivery devices. Furthermore, the paper investigates intelligent drug delivery methods, which encompass stimuli-responsive systems such as temperature, redox, pH, light, enzyme, and magnetic responsive systems. In addition to that, the review goes into topics such as tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, biomedical robotics, automation, biomechanics, and the utilization of green biomaterials. The purpose of this analysis is to provide insights that will enhance continuing research and development efforts in engineering-driven biomedical breakthroughs, ultimately contributing to the improvement of healthcare. These insights will be provided by addressing difficulties and highlighting future prospects.

Microalgae are capable of generating numerous metabolites that possess notable biological activities and hold substantial promise for various industrial applications. Nevertheless, the taxonomic diversity of these photosynthetic microorganisms has not received thorough investigation. Using the 18S rRNA encoding gene, a recently discovered strain originating from the Tunisian coast (the governorate of Mahdia) was identified as a member of the Porphyridium genus. The growth response as well as the metabolite accumulation of Porphyridium sp. to different culture media (Pm, F/2, and Hemerick) was investigated over a period of 52 days. The highest biomass production was recorded with Pm medium (2 × 10⁷ cell/mL). The apparent growth rates (µ) and the doubling time (D_t) were about 0.081 day^-1 and 12.34 days, respectively. The highest chlorophyll a (0.678 ± 0.005 pg/cell), total carotenoids (0.18 ± 0.003 pg/cell), phycoerythrin (3.88 ± 0.003 pg/cell), and proteins (14.58 ± 0.35 pg/cell) contents were observed with F/2 medium. Cultivating Porphyridium sp. in both F/2 and Hemerick media yielded similar levels of starch accumulation. The Hemerick medium has proven to be the most suitable for the production of lipids (2.23% DW) and exopolysaccharides (5.41 ± 0.56 pg/cell).
