Utilization of Macroalgae for the Production of Bioactive Compounds and Bioprocesses Using Microbial Biotechnology

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
To achieve sustainable development, alternative resources should replace conventional resources such as fossil fuels. In marine ecosystems, many macroalgae grow faster than terrestrial plants.

Effect of hyposaline stress on the release of dissolved organic carbon from five common macroalgal species

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Macroalgae are important primary producers in coastal waters; they have high carbon sink potential and are often subjected to hyposaline stress in their natural habitats.

Bacterial and fungal gut microbiota of supralittoral talitrid amphipods feeding on brown macroalgae and paper.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Some macroalgae drift on the ocean and are stranded on coasts, and these stranded brown macroalgae are regarded to be degraded by organisms. Alginate is a major component of brown macroalgae. An uncovering of how carbon is cycled through brown macroalgae

Macroalgae has no effect on the severity and dynamics of Caribbean yellow band disease. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
By removing herbivores and promoting increases in macroalgae, overfishing is thought to indirectly cause coral disease and mortality. We performed three field manipulations to test the general hypothesis that overfishing and the subsequent alteration of ...

Improved Hydrophobicity of Macroalgae Biopolymer Film Incorporated with Kenaf Derived CNF Using Silane Coupling Agent

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Hydrophilic behaviour of carrageenan macroalgae biopolymer, due to hydroxyl groups, has limited its applications, especially for packaging. In this study, macroalgae were reinforced with cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) isolated from kenaf bast fibres.

Spatiotemporal Patterns in the Biomass of Drift Macroalgae in the Indian River Lagoon, Florida, United States

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Drift macroalgae plays key roles in the ecology of many coastal systems, including the Indian River Lagoon. In the lagoon, changes in the biomass of drift macroalgae may have interacted with an unprecedented bloom of phytoplankton in 2011.

Elements in Serum, Muscle, Liver, and Kidney of Rabbits Fed Macroalgae-Supplemented Diets

open access: yesMarine Drugs
The addition of marine macroalgae to animal feed has garnered interest due to the demonstrated benefits of gut health in many livestock species. Most macroalgae have a higher mineral content than terrestrial vegetables, making them an attractive ...

Bio-butanol Production by Clostridium saccharoperbutylacetonicum N1-4 Using Selected Species of Brown and Red Macroalgae [PDF]

open access: yesIranica Journal of Energy and Environment, 2016
Macroalgae are a promising option because they can be propagated easily along the seaside thus eliminating the need for land and nutrient resources. Hence, different macroalgae were assessed for their potential in butanol fermentation.
