An exhaustive selection of the different typologies of approaches used by marine biotechnologists to develop research on these topics are demonstrated in the eight original articles and two reviews comprising this Special Issue. The reported scientific publications describe the discovery of new compounds for cancer therapy or for the control of bacterial virulence. Different new uses of marine chitin or chitosan-based materials are also shown for the first time, as well as novel green techniques for the extraction of compounds from marine algae or from fishery waste, which are described in the two reviews.Technology: general issuesbicsscExtracellular Polymeric Substanceshydrogelmesenchymal stem cellsbiomaterialsenzymeomega 3PUFATrichormus variabilisCyanobacteriamechanochemical synthesischitosanlaser stereolithographylong-term stabilityscaffoldtissue reactionchitinscaffoldsbiological materialsdemospongesPseudoceratina arabicamicroalgaebiodiversitybioactive compoundsgreen extractionspharmaceuticalsecondary metabolitesbiofuelsantibiofilmfucoidanmotilitynanoparticlesPseudomonas aeruginosavirulence factorsn-3 fatty acidsbrainα-Chitinprodigiosinanti-tumorsSerratia marcescensbioprocessingechinochrome Aestradiolextracellular matrixvocal foldovariectomymarine polymersionic liquidstissue engineeringmembraneshydrogelsspongesChondrosinChondrosia reniformismarine toxincytotoxic proteinPoriferamarinemicrobescancerpreventiontherapyin vitroin vivoclinical studiesTechnology: general issuesGiovine Marcoedt1320354Giovine MarcoothBOOK9910557103303321Marine-Derived Products for Biomedicine3034179UNINA
