Xanthophylls from the Sea: Algae as Source of Bioactive Carotenoids
Marine Drugs, 2021 Algae are considered pigment-producing organisms. The function of these compounds in algae is to carry out photosynthesis. They have a great variety of pigments, which can be classified into three large groups: chlorophylls, carotenoids, and phycobilins.

Arsoniumphospholipid in algae [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1978 A novel phospholipid containing arsenic was formed by all marine algae cultured in [ 74 As]arsenate. Components of the labeled algal extracts readily separated by two-dimensional paper radiochromatography. Base-catalyzed deacylation of the major lipid yielded a phosphodiester identical to one of the two major water ...
