Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Temperature and pH on the Growth of Sargassum linearifolium and S. podacanthum in Potassium-Fortified Inland Saline WaterHa Thi Thu Bui, Trong Quoc Luu, Ravi FotedarThis study tested the effects of temperature and pH on water quality and the growth of Sargassum linearifolium and S. podacanthum in potassium-fortified Inland Saline Water (ISW) of Western Australia (WA), at two levels of pH (low pH range of 5.5-6.5 and ambient pH 7.0-8.2) and two levels of temperature (high temperature 26-27°C and ambient room temperature of 20-22°C) in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 6 Apr 2018 · 8,761 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Enriching Nitrogen and Phosphorus on the Growth of Sargassum Podacanthum Cultured in Potassium-Fortified Inland Saline WaterHa Thi Thu Bui, Trong Quoc Luu, Ravi FotedarPotassium-fortified inland saline water (K+ISW) has shown potential for growing marine species, including seaweed species. The response of a brown seaweed species, Sargassum podacanthum, to nitrogen and phosphorus enrichments were evaluated by culturing the species for 84 days in K+ISW and comparing it with Ocean Water (OW). The culture media were enriched weekly with ammonium chloride and sodium dihydrogen phosphate, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 6 Apr 2018 · 7,747 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSargassum Invasion of Coastal Environments: A Growing ConcernClifford Louime, Jodany Fortune, Gary GervaisFloating tropical brown macroalgae, commonly called Sargassum, besieging the Caribbean coastlines have long been a regular occurrence in the region, especially during the fall and winter months. These washed-up seaweeds are considered by scientists as an important part of the coastal ecosystem, as they serve as habitat and nurseries for numerous marine species. However, in recent years, the region has … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 6 Feb 2017 · 12,734 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAntioxidant Activity of Brown Algae Sargassum species Extract from the Coastline of Java IslandSiti A. Budhiyanti, Sri Raharjo, Djagal W. Marseno, Iwan Y.B. LelanaThe coastlines with rocky shores at Java Island Indonesia, Gunung Kidul (Yogyakarta) and Jepara (Central Java), have abundant resources of brown algae Sargassum sp. Little effort, however, has been made to explore the antioxidant potential of the algae harvested from these area. Tropical brown algae have proven to produce a very effective antioxidant defence system due to the strong UV … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 30 Aug 2012 · 9,901 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCharacteristic Study of the Marine Algae Sargassum sp. on Metal AdsorptionA. Saravanan, V. Brindha, Soundarajan KrishnanProblem statement: Biomass of brown marine macro algae is a biological resource that is available in large quantities and can form a good base for the development of biosorbent material. Approach: Algae have been found to be potentially suitable biosorbents because of its cheap availability, both in fresh or salt water, relatively high surface area and high binding affinity. Results: … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 7 · 24 Jun 2011 · 7,660 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiochemical Composition and Nutraceutical Perspectives Red Sea SeaweedsEman A. AlwaleedSeaweeds are marketed as “nutraceuticals” owing to their highly bioactive ingredients as well as food supplements in order to relinquish physiological conditions and resist diseases. In the current study, the biochemical compositions (total protein, carbohydrate, lipid, fatty acids, amino acid, minerals and dietary fibers) of the seaweeds Caulerpa racemosa, Digenea simplex, Sargassum polycystum and Cystoseria myrica were evaluated. Digenea simplex … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 12 · 23 Jan 2020 · 7,600 accessesView PDFCite
