Seaweed biorefinery: A sustainable process for valorising the biomass of brown seaweed
Journal of Cleaner Production, 2020Abstract Marine macroalgal resources are gaining importance as one of the promising feedstocks for the production of food, feed, chemicals and energy which are upwardly growing worldwide. Recent studies have convincingly demonstrated the scope and potentials of seaweeds for the production of diverse bioproducts of commercial importance.

Brown Seaweed Extracts (Alginates)
2022Alginates, or algin, is a generic term for the salts and derivatives of alginic acid. This acidic polysaccharide or gum occurs as the insoluble mixed calcium, sodium, potassium, and magnesium salt in the Phaeophyceae, brown seaweeds. Brown seaweed has been used as a food for centuries but the discovery of algin did not occur until about 1880.

Nature Methods
Brown seaweeds are multicellular eukaryotes that have been evolving independently of animals and plants for more than a billion years. The filamentous brown alga Ectocarpus has been used as a model to understand the biology of these enigmatic organisms and to shed light on a range of major questions, from the molecular basis of complex developmental ...

Biosorption of Trivalent Chromium on the Brown Seaweed Biomass
Environmental Science & Technology, 2001Biosorption has attracted attention as a cost-effective means for the treatment of metal-bearing wastewater. However, the mechanism of metal binding is not clearly understood, and consequently, modeling of the biosorption performance is still raising debates.

Brown Seaweed Polysaccharides: A Roadmap as Biomolecules
2022Marine macroalgae are the source of a wide range of compounds that have demonstrated a myriad of potential uses. Sulfated and non-sulfated polysaccharides are some of the major compounds found in these organisms, and they could be applied in many industries due to their diverse potentials.

Determination of the amount of mannitol in brown seaweeds
Chemistry of Natural Compounds, 1972A method has been developed for determining the mannitol content in brown seaweeds. A quantitative analysis of the mannitol in the most important brown seaweeds of the Sea of Japan has been given.

Carbohydrates of the brown seaweed lessonia nigrescens
Phytochemistry, 1983Abstract Stipes plus haptera and fronds were extracted separately. Crystalline mannitol and two oligouronic acids were separated from the ethanolic extracts of both parts of the weed. ‘Fucans’ were present in all the sequential aqueous, acidic and alkaline extracts.

Biosorption of metals in brown seaweed biomass
Water Research, 2000Biosorption of Cd by biomass of the brown seaweeds Durvillaea, Laminaria, Ecklonia and Homosira presaturated with Ca, Mg or K was coupled with the release of these light ions. The feasibility of biomass pre-treatment to develop a better biosorbent was evaluated by its biosorption performance, the degree of its component leaching (measured by the weight

Carbohydrates of the brown seaweed Dictyota dichotoma
Phytochemistry, 1978Abstract The fucose-containing polysaccharides of the brown alga Dictyota dichotoma were extracted with either trichloroacetic acid or HCl to give both water-soluble and water-insoluble materials. The latter had a high proportion (16 to 11%) of protein, and although all the sugars found in the water-soluble extracts were present, the major sugar in
