Halophyte plant Salicornia has potential uses in farming and environmental management. is one of the most important families halophytes known for its exceptional salt tolerance. It thrives well saline habitats near coastal areas. A comprehensive review paper provides an overview Salicornia, including details on impact temperature salinity germination different ecotypes, as influence day length ...

Three compounds containing moieties rarely encountered in nature, viz., 3-nonyloxirane-2 carboxylic acid methyl ester (1), 2-chlorododec-2-en-1-ol (2), and 2-chlorododec-2,11-dien-1-ol (3), were isolated from the red alga Gracilaria verrucosa, and their structures were determined by spectroscopic methods.

Phycobilisomes (PBS) are accessory light harvesting protein complexes that directionally transfer energy towards photosystems. Phycobilisomes are organized in a central core and rods radiating from it. Components of phycobilisomes in Gracilaria chilensis (Gch) are Phycobiliproteins (PBPs), Phycoerythrin (PE), and Phycocyanin (PC) in the rods, while Allophycocyanin (APC) is found in the core, an...

Three types of phenolic acids (caffeic, ferulic, and chlorogenic acid) were identified quantified in two halophytic plants (Salicornia bigelovii Salicornia sinus-persica). Analysis was performed using a high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) system via the standard addition method. The matrix effect (ME), recovery efficiency (RE), process (PE) parameters ev...

vacuum drying of salicornia herbacea l. was performed at different drying temperatures (50, 60, 70, and 80c) to evaluate the drying characteristics and the effect of drying temperatures on the quality of salicornia. as the drying temperature increased, the drying time decreased significantly (p< 0.05). the drying rate decreased with decrease in moisture content and increase in drying time. on ...

This study investigated the effect of Sargassum angustifolium and Gracilaria pulvinata extracts on the growth performance, body composition, antioxidant status and gut microbiota of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) fry. For this purpose, 540 fry of rainbow trout (initial weight 0.23±0.04 g) were distributed in 12 fiberglass tanks. Fish were fed with experimental diets containing 500 mg kg-1 ...

Salicornia bigelovii Torr. has been consumed not only as a popular kind of vegetable, but also as a medicinal plant to treat hypertension, cephalalgia, scurvy and cancer. The present study was designed to investigate its chemical components and cytotoxic activity. A new noroleanane-type triterpene saponin, bigelovii C (1), was separated and purified from Salicornia bigelovii Torr., along with f...

Ž . We determined the feasibility of using salt-tolerant plants halophytes as biofilters to remove nutrients from saline aquaculture wastewater. Suaeda esteroa, Salicornia bigeloÕii and Atriplex Ž . barclayana Chenopodiaceae , species with potential as forage and oil seed crops, were grown in Ž . sand in draining containers lysimeters in a greenhouse experiment. They were irrigated to meet evap...
