Includes bibliographical references and index.
Cover; Title Page; Copyright; Contributors; Preface; Editor; Part I: Introduction to Algae and Their Importance; Chapter 1: Biological Importance of Marine Algae; 1.1 Introduction; 1.2 Interesting natural products and their biological activities from macroalgae (seaweeds); Acknowledgment; Chapter 2: Seaweeds: The Wealth of Oceans; 2.1 Introduction; 2.2 Need for marine resources; 2.3 Various marine resources; 2.4 Producers in the marine environment; 2.5 Emergent plants; 2.6 Seaweed diversity; 2.7 Uses of seaweeds; 2.8 Marine farming: global scenario; 2.9 SEAPURA: an EU effort.
The Handbook of Macroalgae: Biotechnology and Applied Phycology describes the biological, biotechnological and the industrial applications of seaweeds. Vast research into the cultivation of seaweeds is currently being undertaken but there is a lack of methodological strategies in place to develop novel drugs from these sources. This book aims to rectify this situation, providing an important review of recent advances and potential new applications for macroalgae. Focusing on the chemical and structural nature of seaweeds the book brings the potentially valuable bioactive nature to the fore. Novel compounds isolated from seaweeds are reviewed to provide an invaluable reference for anyone working in the field.
