Proximate Composition of Bio Potential Seaweeds from Mandapam South East Coast of India

Abstract: ABSTRACT. Proximate composition of the three green seaweeds viz., Chaetomorpha aerea, Enteromorpha intestinalis, Enteromorpha compressa one brown seaweed Dictyota dichotoma and one red seaweed Gracilaria corticata was investigated by determination of protein, carbohydrates, lipid, moisture and ash content. In the present study, the total protein was recarded upper most in E. intestinalis and bare minimum in E. compressa. The maximum carbohydrates recorded in C. aerea and minimum in G. corticata. The lipid cont… Show more

“…Other studies have reported high content of carbohydrate and/or ash in seaweeds (Nguyen, Ueng, & Tsai, 2011;Rohani-Ghadikolaei et al, 2012;Gokulakrishnan, Raja, Sattanathan, & Subramanian, 2015;Bhuiyan et al, 2016;Sivaramakrishnan et al, 2017), which suggests these two parameters are important in the composition and biochemical functions of the seaweeds. Moreover, the high content of carbohydrates suggests these organisms could be an important source of phycocolloids for industrial uses.…”

“…The Other category includes methods that used petroleum ether (5% of total lipid observations), ethyl ether (6%), dichloromethane (0.6%), or other extraction solvents. The lipid data from four publications (Heiba et al ; Jayasankar ; Kaliaperumal et al ; Gokulakrishnan et al ) were removed from the dataset prior to analyses (and were not included in the total observations count) due to consistently anomalously high values.…”
