Estuaries are vital nursery grounds for many marine fishes. During initial estuarine residence, juvenile fishes presumably benefit greatly from rapid growth, which can diminish susceptibility to size-selective predators. To measure the degree of variability in growth rates across different estuarine sites and habitats. I conducted caging experiments with 3 species (Pseudopleuronectes americanus...

Seaweeds are potentially excellent sources of highly bioactive materials that could represent useful leads in the alleviation of salinity stress. The effects of presoaking wheat grains in water extract of Ulva lactuca on growth, some enzymatic activities, and protein pattern of salinized plants were investigated in this study. Algal presoaking of grains demonstrated a highly significant enhance...

Green algae as one of the marine natural resources which is included in main seaweed found many coastal areas In-donesia. The bioactive component that acts an antibacterial agent green type Ulva lactuca ulvan polysaccharide extract. Ulvan a cell wall accounts for 9-36% dry weight biomass and mainly composed rhamnose sulfate, uronic acid (glucuronic iduronic acid) xylose. Polysaccharide extracte...

<p>The green macroalgae <em>Ulva lactuca</em> (L.) is a potential alternative protein source. This study investigates the effect of soaking and different drying methods on color quality <em>U. lactuca</em>. Moisture ash content, color, i.e., crude protein, in vitro digestibility, solubility seaweed were determined. In its conduct, fresh was soaked water for various...

Background: Root-knot nematodes are known to cause significant damage to eggplants. New approaches by green silver nanoparticles (GSN) are used to control plant-parasitic nematode to avoid chemical nematicide hazards.Objectives: Analyses of the incorporation of different concentrations of nanoparticles on two different algae (Ulva lactuca and Turbinaria turbinata) were carried out. Fureth...

This paper reports the results of flavonoids determination expressed in rutin from marine algae. For this purpose, rutin and rutin AlCl3 complexes were spectrophotometrically studied in three domains of ligand concentrations: ligand Crut=1.34-6.7mg/L, 4-20mg/L and 2-32mg/L. The precision, accuracy, specificity, and the quantification limit of the method were verified. The calibration curve trac...
