Abstract:In this study, we analyzed the antioxidant activity and total phenolic content of the intertidal seaweed Palisada perforata collected from different reef microhabitats (sheltered site, tide pool, plateau, and exposed site) along the coast of Pernambuco (Brazil). Both parameters were compared with the same parameters of this species grown in the laboratory under two experiments simulating temperature, salinity, and desiccation conditions found in the reef. After both experiments (temperature x salinity and desi… Show more
“…Recently Vasconcelos et al (2021) studied the environmental stress tolerance and antioxidant response of Palisada perforata (Rhodophyta) from a Brazilian Tropical Reef. Theses author found that P. perforata has a low antioxidant activity throughout all reef microhabitats, suggesting that photoinhibition plays a more complex and vital role in protecting photosystem centers from ROS damage than the antioxidant activity.…”
