“…Seagrasses have various uses for humans, such as food, medicine, and biofuels, while several of their compounds have exhibited antioxidant, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral, antidiabetic, vasoprotective and hemolytic activities [ 10 , 11 , 12 ]. Recent review articles [ 10 , 11 ] summarized the bioactive components isolated from marine seagrasses such as Posidonia oceanica , Thalassia ciliatum , T. hemprichii , T. testudinum , Zostera marina , Z. noltii , Cymodocea nodosa, C. serrulata, Enhalus acoroides, Ruppia maritima, R. cirrhosa, Halophila stipulacea and H. ovalis. However, the activities of bioactive substances derived from marine macrophytes, especially that of the seagrasses, have not been thoroughly investigated, due to their great biodiversity [ 13 ].…”
