biologically role in ecosystems, micro algae are important organisms since they
can produce various compounds such as lipids, proteins, pigments and vitamins
etc. Also, thermalism can be defined as therapeutic use of hot water springs.
The biologically active compounds derived from thermal blue-green algae also
play important role in SPA ( <i>Sanitas per
aqua </i>) <i> </i>treatments. In this study,
we present an overview of literature describing the general characteristics of
blue green algae which distribute in thermal springs and the history of
geothermal springs which used for therapeutic purposes. </span> </p> <p> </p> </div>}, number={2}
