Data on the content of free amino acids (FAA) in four species of red algae are presented. The content of 20 amino acids was determined in the composition of FAA of the studied species. The largest amounts contained glutamic and aspartic acids, alanine, proline and taurine. The studied algae do not differ in the qualitative composition of protein amino acids, but differ in the presence and content of nonprotein ones. The content of most of the FAA and their summ was the highest for Phycodrysrubens, and in Palmaria palmatathe smallest.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
