MARINE POLLUTION BULLETIN 2024; 206:116795. [PMID: 39121592 DOI: 10.1016/j.marpolbul.2024.116795] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2024] [Revised: 07/28/2024] [Accepted: 07/29/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024]
Abstract
The objective of the present study was to evaluate the mineral and heavy metals composition of different seaweeds growing in Marchica lagoon. To this end, green seaweeds, red seaweeds, and brown seaweeds were collected from three different stations in the Marchica lagoon. The highest concentration of Ca was measured in Centroceras clavulatum (17.12 ± 0.60), K in Caulerpa prolifera (15.17 ± 0.20), Na in Gracilaria dura (4.16 ± 0.03) and Hypnea musciformis (4.09 ± 0.03), Mg in Ulva rigida (2.80 ± 0.06), and the highest concentration of P was registered in Ulva intestinalis (3658 ± 14). Centroceras clavulatum and Gracilaria dura had the highest Al, Fe, and Sr levels. Cystoseira compressa had the highest As (53.8 mg/kg) and Rb (43 mg/kg). These findings suggest that seaweeds collected from Marchica lagoon could be used as potential sources of minerals and trace elements in seaweed-based products for human and animal nutrition alike.

Abstract
This study was conducted to confirm the following effects of non-meat binders (NMB) on proximate composition, pH, cooking yield, amino acids, volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS), and correlation of pork emulsified sausages during refrigerated storage. The following groups of sausage samples were manufactured: Control (non-addition), BBP (1% bovine blood plasma); PBP (1% porcine blood plasma), EWP (1% white egg powder), CPPP (1% commercial porcine plasma powder), ISP (1% isolated soy protein), SP (1% seaweed powder), and SC (1% sodium caseinate). When NMB was added, ISP, SP, and SC showed higher heating yields while PBP showed lower heating yields than the control. As a result of amino acid analysis, PBP, CPPP, and SC showed significantly higher serine content than the control. EWP and SC showed significantly lower TBARS values than the control group, and VBN did not exceed 20 mg% in any treatments until the 5th week. These results demonstrate that SC is a NMB that can lower TBARS value while improving heating yield and serine content.

Sunwoo IY, Cho H, Kim T, Koh EJ, Jeong GT. Evaluation of Antioxidant Activity of Residue from Bioethanol Production Using Seaweed Biomass. Mar Drugs 2024; 22:340. [PMID: 39195456 DOI: 10.3390/md22080340] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2024] [Revised: 07/23/2024] [Accepted: 07/25/2024] [Indexed: 08/29/2024] Open
Abstract
This study explores the potential of producing bioethanol from seaweed biomass and reusing the residues as antioxidant compounds. Various types of seaweed, including red (Gelidium amansii, Gloiopeltis furcata, Pyropia tenera), brown (Saccharina japonica, Undaria pinnatifida, Ascophyllum nodosum), and green species (Ulva intestinalis, Ulva prolifera, Codium fragile), were pretreated with dilute acid and enzymes and subsequently processed to produce bioethanol with Saccharomyces cerevisiae BY4741. Ethanol production followed the utilization of sugars, resulting in the highest yields from red algae > brown algae > green algae due to their high carbohydrate content. The residual biomass was extracted with water, ethanol, or methanol to evaluate its antioxidant activity. Among the nine seaweeds, the A. nodosum bioethanol residue extract (BRE) showed the highest antioxidant activity regarding the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) activity, ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), and reactive oxygen species (ROS) inhibition of H2O2-treated RAW 264.7 cells. These by-products can be valorized, contributing to a more sustainable and economically viable biorefinery process. This dual approach not only enhances the utilization of marine resources but also supports the development of high-value bioproducts.

Abstract
The marine kingdom is an important source of a huge variety of scaffolds inspiring the design of new drugs. The complex molecules found in the oceans present a great challenge to organic and medicinal chemists. However, the wide variety of biological activities they can display is worth the effort. In this article, we present an overview of different seaweeds as potential sources of bioactive pigments with activity against neurodegenerative diseases, especially due to their neuroprotective effects. Along with a broad introduction to seaweed as a source of bioactive pigments, this review is especially focused on astaxanthin and fucoxanthin as potential neuroprotective and/or anti-neurodegenerative agents. PubMed and SciFinder were used as the main sources to search and select the most relevant scientific articles within the field.

Nutritional composition and phenolic contents of Gracilariopsis longissima, Padina tetrastromatica and Ulva intestinalis from the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh coast. Heliyon 2024; 10:e31128. [PMID: 38778999 PMCID: PMC11109889 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e31128] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2023] [Revised: 05/07/2024] [Accepted: 05/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Seaweeds have become the focus of experts in recent years due to their biological characteristics and the variety of uses they have for both humans and animals. Biochemical composition, amino acids, fatty acids, and phenolic components were analyzed to explore the nutritive value of Gracilariopsis longissima, Padina tetrastromatica, and Ulva intestinalis from the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh coast. Proximate composition and mineral content were determined according to the AOAC method. The high-performance liquid chromatography amino acid analysis system was used for the amino acid analysis and the fatty acid profile of the extracted oils was assessed as their methyl esters. The Folin-Ciocalteu technique was used to estimate the phenolic content and the aluminum chloride colorimetric technique was used to calculate the total flavonoid content. The three different species of seaweed had significantly different proximate compositions (P < 0.05), with G. longissima having the highest protein content. Except for sulfur, the mineral contents were likewise considerably higher (P < 0.05) in G. longissima. Although the amounts of the essential amino acids were greater than 50 % of the total amino acids in the three studied seaweed species, the total amino acid composition of these three species differed significantly (P < 0.05). The findings indicated that lipid levels were low in all the assessed species, but unsaturated fatty acid levels were high, with G. longissima exhibiting the highest amounts. The results showed that, compared to the other species, G. longissima had a substantially higher (P < 0.05) level of total phenolic and flavonoid content. The three studied seaweed appear to be excellent for nutrition based on their overall nutritional profiles. However, due to high protein, unsaturated fatty acid, essential amino acid, and total phenolic and flavonoid content, G. longissima is the most promising seaweed that will be helpful for pharmaceutical and multifunctional food applications.

Characterization of the invasive macroalgae Rugulopteryx Okamurae for potential biomass valorisation. Food Chem 2024; 440:138241. [PMID: 38141439 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.138241] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2023] [Revised: 11/15/2023] [Accepted: 12/18/2023] [Indexed: 12/25/2023]
Abstract
This study aimed to examine the composition and properties of the invasive macroalgae R. okamurae and explore potential applications. The results showed that the seaweed biomass is mainly composed of structural carbohydrates, with alginate being the main constituent, accounting for 32 % of its total composition and with a mannuronic and guluronic acid ratio (M/G) ratio of 0.93. It also has a relatively high concentration of fucose, related to the presence of fucoidans that have important biological functions. Among the mineral contents, a high magnesium and calcium (7107 and 5504 mg/kg) concentration, and the presence of heavy metals above legislated thresholds, were notable. R. okamurae also contained a high lipid content of 17 %, mainly composed of saturated fatty acids, but with a significant fraction of n3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (18 %) resulting in a low n6/n3 ratio (0.31), that has health benefits. The protein content of R. okamurae was 12 %, with high-quality proteins, as essential amino acids (mainly leucine, phenylalanine and valine) constitute 32 % of the total amino acids. It also showed a high polyphenol content and outstanding antioxidant properties (106.88 mg TE/g). Based on these findings, R. okamurae has significant potential as a sustainable source of bioactive compounds that can add value to different sectors, including food, feed, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.

Abstract
The immunomodulatory properties of the polysaccharides (carrageenan, xylan) from Chondrus crispus (CC), Ahnfeltiopsis devoniensis (AD), Sarcodiotheca gaudichaudii (SG) and Palmaria palmata (PP) algal species were studied. Using RAW264.7 macrophages, we investigated the proliferation and migration capacity of different extracts along with their immunomodulatory activities, including nitric oxide (NO) production, phagocytosis, and secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Polysaccharides from C. crispus and S. gaudichaudii effectively mitigated inflammation and improved scratch-wound healing. Polysaccharide fractions extracted under cold conditions (25 °C), including CC-1A, SG-1A and SG-1B stimulated cell proliferation, while fractions extracted under hot conditions (95 °C), including CC-3A, CC-2B and A. devoniensis (AD-3A), inhibited cell proliferation after 48 h. Furthermore, RAW264.7 cells treated with the fractions CC-3A, AD-1A, and SG-2A significantly reduced LPS-stimulated NO secretion over 24 h. Phagocytosis was significantly improved by treatment with C. crispus (CC-2B, CC-3B) and A. devoniensis (AD-3A) fractions. RAW264.7 cells treated with the CC-2A and SG-1A fractions showed elevated TGF-β1 expression without affecting TNF-α expression at 24 h. Polysaccharide fractions of A. devoniensis (ι/κ hybrid carrageenan; AD-2A, AD-3A) showed the highest anti-coagulation activity. CC-2A and SG-1A fractions enhanced various bioactivities, suggesting they are candidates for skin-health applications. The carrageenan fractions (CC-3A: λ-, μ-carrageenan, SG-2A: ν-, ι-carrageenan) tested herein showed great potential for developing anti-inflammatory and upscaled skin-health applications.

Seasonal Changes in the Biochemical Composition of Dominant Macroalgal Species along the Egyptian Red Sea Shore. BIOLOGY 2023; 12:biology12030411. [PMID: 36979103 PMCID: PMC10045638 DOI: 10.3390/biology12030411] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2023] [Revised: 02/27/2023] [Accepted: 03/01/2023] [Indexed: 03/30/2023]
Abstract
Macroalgae are significant biological resources in coastal marine ecosystems. Seasonality influences macroalgae biochemical characteristics, which consequentially affect their ecological and economic values. Here, macroalgae were surveyed from summer 2017 to spring 2018 at three sites at 7 km (south) from El Qusier, 52 km (north) from Marsa Alam and 70 km (south) from Safaga along the Red Sea coast, Egypt. Across all the macroalgae collected, Caulerpa prolifera (green macroalgae), Acanthophora spicifera (red macroalgae) and Cystoseira myrica, Cystoseira trinodis and Turbinaria ornata (brown macroalgae) were the most dominant macroalgal species. These macroalgae were identified at morphological and molecular (18s rRNA) levels. Then, the seasonal variations in macroalgal minerals and biochemical composition were quantified to determine the apt period for harvesting based on the nutritional requirements for commercial utilizations. The chemical composition of macroalgae proved the species and seasonal variation. For instance, minerals were more accumulated in macroalgae C. prolifera, A. spicifera and T. ornata in the winter season, but they were accumulated in both C. myrica and C. trinodis in the summer season. Total sugars, amino acids, fatty acids and phenolic contents were higher in the summer season. Accordingly, macroalgae collected during the summer can be used as food and animal feed. Overall, we suggest the harvesting of macroalgae for different nutrients and metabolites in the respective seasons.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Wound healing is an active, complex, integrated series of cellular, physiological, and biochemical changes initiated by the stimulus of injury in a tissue. The present study was performed to investigate the potential wound healing abilities of Sargassum ilicifolium crude extracts (CE) that were characterized by 1H NMR and FTIR Spectrometric measurements. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seaweed samples were collected from southern coastal sites of Sri Lanka. To determine the cytotoxicity and proliferation of S. ilicifolium CE were used for the MTT and alamarBlue assays respectively. The scratch and exclusion wound models were used to HaCaT and HDF cells to assess the cell proliferation and migration. RAW 264.7 cells (macrophages) were used to evaluate Nitric Oxide (NO) production and phagocytosis activities. Moreover, Fifteen, 8-week-old, female, New Zealand rabbits were selected and divided into five groups: excision skin wounds (10.40 ± 0.60 mm) were induced in groups I, II, and III. Rabbits in groups I and IV were given S. ilicifolium CE (orally, 100 mg/kg day, two weeks), whereas groups II and V were given equal amounts of distilled water. Wound healing properties were measured and wound tissue samples were collated, formalin-fixed, wax-embedded, stained (Hematoxylin and Eosin; Van Gieson) and examined for the healing process. RESULTS Anti-inflammatory and wound healing activities were observed in RAW 264.7, HDF and HaCaT cells treated with S. ilicifolium aqueous extracts when compared to the control groups. S. ilicifolium extracts concentration 8 - 4 μg/μL, (P<0.05) had remarkable the highest proliferative and migratory effects on RAW 264.7, HDF and HaCaT cells when compared with the control. RAW 264.7 cell proliferation and/or migration were higher in S. ilicifolium extracts (4 μg/μL, 232.8 ± 10.07%) compared with the control (100 %). Scratch wound healing were remarkably enhanced in 24 h, 48 h (P<0.05) when treated with S. ilicifolium on HaCaT cells. Rabbits treated with the CE of S. ilicifolium showed a significantly increased wound healing activities (P<0.05) within three days with a close wound area of 57.21 ± 0.77 % compared with control group (26.63 ± 1.09 %). Histopathology, aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase levels evidenced no toxic effects on seaweed treated groups. Histopathological results also revealed that the healing process was significantly faster in the rabbit groups which were as treated with CE of S. ilicifolium orally with the evidence of enhanced early granulation tissue (connective tissue and angiogenesis) and significant epithelization compared to the control. CONCLUSIONS Cell proliferation and migration are significantly faster when treated with S. ilicifolium aqueous extracts. Moreover, there are no toxic effect of S. ilicifolium aqueous extracts on RAW 264.7, HDF and HaCaT cell lines. In this study, it is revealed that S. ilicifolium has potential remedial agent; D-Mannitol for skin wound healing properties that by promote keratinocyte and fibroblast proliferation and migration. These findings show that S. ilicifolium have promising wound healing properties.
