Brown seaweeds lack lignin and have a low cellulose content. Thus, seaweeds should be an easier material for biological degradation than land plants. However, seaweeds have a complex composition, and complete degradation of the material necessitates the presence of microorganisms with a broad substrate range.

ABSTRACT This study presents a comparative analysis of sulfated polysaccharides extracted from Ulva lactuca collected in Tunisia (PSUT) and Morocco (PSUM). FTIR confirmed the presence of sulfate groups, while GC‐MS identified diverse sugar components. Both polysaccharides showed strong antioxidant activity, with DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging rates ...

Environmental Drivers of Genetic Structure and Local Adaptation in a Marine Foundation Species
We used genome‐wide SNP data to investigate how environmental gradients shape genetic structure, connectivity and local adaptation in the kelp Eisenia arborea across ~2700 km of coastline and contrasting depth environments. We found strong latitudinal genetic structure, evidence for local adaptation to temperature and depth despite high connectivity ...

Study of phenolic-polysaccharide interactions in brown seaweed
Brown seaweed has a rich source of bioactives, notably antioxidative phenolic compounds and sulphated polysaccharides. Despite their importance, the interactions between these compounds and their resultant antioxidant activities have not been extensively studied.

Health Benefits of Polysaccharides in Red Algae: A Comprehensive Review
Graphical abstract showing the health benefits of red algal polysaccharides. ABSTRACT Humans have long consumed red algae (especially by the Asian community), and their polysaccharide extracts (carrageenan, agar) are extensively used in the food industry as gel thickeners.
