Canopy-forming macroalgae are amongst the main competitors of corals by affecting coral recruitment, growth recruits and adults, fecundity in worst-case scenario causing bleaching necrosis. However, potentially reef-building Cladocora caespitosa (Linnaeus, 1767) canopy-forming order Fucales (Cystoseira sensu lato) known to concur a few places Mediterranean Sea. Here we look at small-scale relat...

Alcoholic extracts of 8 different types of seaweeds from Iran's Persian Gulf were tested for their antimalarial and acetylcholinesterase enzyme (AChE) inhibitory activities for the first time. A modified Ellman and Ingkaninan method was used for measuring AChE inhibitory activity in which galanthamine was used as the reference. The antimalarial assay was performed using microculture radioisotop...

 Hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia have been symptoms of many serious diseases such as diabetes and atherosclerosis overall the world. Thus, drug researchers have focused on new, natural and healthy drug alternatives. Marine macroalgae is a great source of hypoglycemic, hypolipidemic or hypocholesterolemic agents. In this study, we investigated that hypoglycemic, hypolipidemic a...

seaweeds have caused an emerging interest in the biomedical area, mainly due to their contents of bioactive substances which show great potential as anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, anti-viral and anti-tumoral drugs. despite the diversity in quality and quantity of the mediterranean tunisian coast flora, with its large contains of marine organisms and seaweeds, most of them have not yet been ...

Brown algae Cystoseira sp. and to gain additional information on the environmental conditions of the area seawater samples were collected from six sampling stations along the Turkish coast of the Aegean Sea. Concentrations of Cd, Pb, Cu, Zn, Mn and Fe were measured for both algae and seawater samples. The heavy metal concentrations detected in algae showed significant differences among all stat...

In this study, the effect of brown seaweed (Cystoseira barbata) and cattle manure combinations were investigated as a worm food on properties Eisenia fetida manure. Seaweed Cystoseira barbata collected from coast Giresun, desalted dried then ground. Cattle was obtained breeding dairy had covered fermented. Food groups; 0% (control group); 5.45%; 10.90%; 21.81% 43.63% algae prepared containing t...

Supercritical carbon dioxide with ethanol as modifier was employed in the extraction of functional food ingredients from Cystoseira abies-marine algae. Three different types of pre-treatment were employed to prepare the vegetal raw material producing an important effect on extraction yield. The experimental assays were carried out in a semi-continuous extraction cell at 290 bar, 40 °C and using...
