Risk assessment of the production of seaweed in the Netherlands; food safety and nature

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Seaweed is seen as an important source of alternative proteins for a sustainable food system and food security. The cultivation of seaweed is therefore encouraged by the European Union (EU) and also by the Dutch government.In the Netherlands, seaweed is farmed on small scale in the Southwest Delta, the Wadden Sea and the North Sea. Despite the

Comparative Study of Sulfated Polysaccharides From Ulva Lactuca Grown in Tunisia and Morocco: in Vitro Antioxidant Activity and in Vivo Anti‐Inflammatory and Anti‐Ulcer Effects

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 3, March 2026.
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 ...

Microbial regulation of global macroalgal blooms (green tides): From holobiont interactions to bloom dynamics and biogeochemistry

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract Green tides caused by Ulva species have become one of the most serious marine ecological disasters, now impacting many coastal nations around the world. Although climatic and environmental drivers of these macroalgal blooms are well recognized, growing evidence identifies Ulva‐associated microbiota as potential pivotal regulators of bloom ...

Biostimulatory Potential of Sargassum muticum Extracts in Enhancing Sesame Tolerance to Water Deficit During Germination and Seedling Growth

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.
Water deficit is a major abiotic stress that limits plant growth and productivity. This article evaluates the effectiveness of an aqueous seaweed extract (ASE) from Sargassum muticum as an ecofriendly biostimulant to alleviate water deficit stress during seed germination and early seedling growth of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.).
