Nutritional Value and Biological Activities of Sea Cucumber <i>Holothuria scabra</i> Cultured in the Open Pond System

The aim of this study was to investigate the production H. scabra in an open pond culture system and evaluate nutritional value biological activities. H successfully grown with average size 15.3 cm weight 132.7 g after eight month period. cultured rich protein content (73.41%). extracts obtained from soxhletation method showed potential antioxidant anticancer activity against MDA-MB-231 breast cell cancer lines, greatest 5.97 ± 0.95 TEAC (based on ABTS method). is related highest total flavonoid (249.96 mg QE/100 g). soxhlet maceration also potent cytotoxic human MDA-MB 231. These data indicated that by culturing could provide a high quality sea cucumber terms biomass yield activity.
