The Red Seaweed Gracilaria gracilis as a Multi Products Source
In recent years seaweeds have increasingly attracted interest in the search for new drugs and have been shown to be a primary source of bioactive natural compounds and biomaterials. In the present investigation, the biochemical composition of the red seaweed Gracilaria gracilis, collected seasonally in the Lesina Lagoon (Southern Adriatic Sea, Lesina, Italy), was assayed by means of advanced an...
متن کاملTotal RNA Extraction for the Red Seaweed Gracilaria changii ( Gracilariales , Rhodophyta )
Five different RNA extraction methods have been tried out on the red seaweed, Gracilaria changii collected from the mangrove area at Morib, Selangor, Malaysia. Two methods, one utilising guanidinium thiocyanate, and another using cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB), were found to be potential alternatives to obtain pure RNA. By incorporating sand while grinding the tissue, the method using C...
متن کاملDevelopment and characterization of microsatellite loci for the haploid–diploid red seaweed Gracilaria vermiculophylla
Microsatellite loci are popular molecular markers due to their resolution in distinguishing individual genotypes. However, they have rarely been used to explore the population dynamics in species with biphasic life cycles in which both haploid and diploid stages develop into independent, functional organisms. We developed microsatellite loci for the haploid-diploid red seaweed Gracilaria vermic...
متن کاملNutritional composition of edible seaweed Gracilaria changgi
Gracilaria changgi, an edible seaweed was analyzed to determine its proximate chemical composition, mineral elements, vitamin C, b-carotene, free fatty acid and amino acid contents. G. changgi showed vitamin A activity of 865 mg rectinol equivalents/100 g sample. It contained a higher composition of unsaturated fatty acids (74%), mainly the omega fatty acids and 26% of saturated fatty acids (ma...
متن کاملChemical composition and physicochemical properties of tropical red seaweed, Gracilaria changii.
A study on the proximate composition, minerals, vitamins, carotenoids, amino acids, fatty acids profiles and some physicochemical properties of freeze dried Gracilaria changii was conducted. It was discovered that this seaweed was high in dietary fibre (64.74±0.82%), low in fat (0.30±0.02%) and Na/K ratio (0.12±0.02). The total amino acid content was 91.90±7.70% mainly essential amino acids (55...
