Different solvent extracts of a red algae, Hypnea flagelliformis, and two brown algae, Cystoseira myrica and Sargassum boveanum, which were collected from the Persian Gulf coast were subjected to different bioassays, including: 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging assay, antibacterial and antifungal activity by thin layer chromatography (TLC)-bioautography, agar disc dif...

The biosorption of hexavalent chromium ions from aqueous solution was investigated using acid-modified dead biomass the abundantly available brown marine alga Cystoseira indica Karachi coastal area Pakistan. biosorbent characterized by infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. optimum conditions, i.e., dosage, contact time, initial metal ion concentration, pH, temperature, were de...

The article presents the results of morphological and anatomical analysis Cystoseira sensu lato taxa in flora Ukraine, taking into account modern views on nomenclature genus. Earlier, based molecular phylogenetic analysis, it was shown that along Ukrainian shores polyphyletic genus s. l. is represented by three (Ericaria crinita f. bosphorica (Sauvageau) S.S.Sadogurska, J.Neiva et A.Israel., Go...
