1. Comparative assessment of antioxidant activity and biochemical composition of four seaweeds, Rocky Bay of Abu Qir in Alexandria, Egypt
Abstract The current study estimated the antioxidant activity and biochemical composition of four seaweeds; Toania atomaria (Phaeophyta), Padina pavonia (Phaeophyta), Jania rubens (Rhodophyta) and Corallina elongate (Rhodophyta). The highest total antioxidant activity was observed with ethanol extract of T. atomaria (44.6 ± 1.6 mg ascorbic acid equivalents/

2. Inventário de algas bentônicas de praias e matacões rochosos da costa nordeste do Pará, Amazônia brasileira
RESUMO Apresentamos um inventário com 23 táxons da flora ficológica bentônica em praias da costa nordeste do estado do Pará, na Amazônia brasileira, uma região raramente amostrada para algas. As coletas foram realizadas em substratos como matacões no município de Salinópolis, e em troncos, galhos e pneumatóforos de Laguncularia racemosa e substrat

3. In vitro potential activity of some seaweeds as antioxidants and inhibitors of diabetic enzymes
Abstract In this study crude extracts of Turbinaria decurrens, Padina pavonica, Sargassum muticum and Sargassum acinarium (Phaeophyta); Ulva lactuca (Chlorophyta) and Pterocladia capillacea (Rhodophyta) seaweeds were tested to evaluate their antioxidant properties and antidiabetic potential on α-amylase and α-glucosidase starch hydrolyzing enzymes. The res

5. Hypnea musciformis (Wulfen) J. V. Lamour. (Gigartinales, Rhodophyta) responses to gasoline short-term exposure: biochemical and cellular alterations
ABSTRACT Presence of toxic compounds in marine coastal waters has increased exponentially since Industrial Revolution. In this way, we aimed to evaluate biochemical and physiological changes occurring within Hypnea musciformis after short-term exposure to gasoline. Hypnea musciformis was cultivated without gasoline and then exposed to various concentrations

6. Reproductive morphology and phenological aspects of one morphological variant of Hypnea pseudomusciformis (Gigartinales, Rhodophyta)
ABSTRACT Hypnea pseudomusciformis was recently described from South America, and has three morphological variants: “musciformis”, “nigrescens”, and “valentiae”. Information on the biology of these variants may help to explain this species’ wide morphological variation despite the absence of genetic divergence among variants. More morphological

7. Novos registros de algas marinhas vermelhas na costa do Estado do Ceará, Nordeste do Brasil
RESUMO Um recente levantamento florístico de Rhodophyta do Estado do Ceará (02º46'30''-07º52'15''S, 37º14'54''-41º24'45''W), Brasil, revelou a ocorrência de 113 espécies distribuídas em 14 ordens, 28 famílias e 63 gêneros. Dentre esses, 18 espécies pertencentes a sete ordens são novos registros, algumas pobremente descritas e ilustradas na liter

8. Inventário de algas bentônicas marinhas e estuarinas e cianobactérias para Tabasco, México
Resumo Estudos sobre algas marinhas, estuarinas e cianobactérias para o litoral do estado de Tabasco encontram-se apenas nos estágios iniciais. Neste estudo, um inventário desses organismos foi feito com base em amostras obtidas em seis localidades, três delas marinhas e três em ambientes estuarinos. Os resultados indicaram a presença de 147 táxons, c

9. Effects of salinity on the physiology of the red macroalga, Acanthophora spicifera (Rhodophyta, Ceramiales)
ABSTRACT Salinity is an important abiotic factor since it is responsible for the local and/or regional distribution of algae. In coastal regions, salinity changes with prevailing winds, precipitation and tide, and particularly in extreme intertidal conditions. Acanthophora spicifera is a red seaweed that occurs in the supratidal region in which changes in ab

10. Biochemical composition of some Egyptian seaweeds with potent nutritive and antioxidant properties
Abstract The present study investigated the biochemical composition of three seaweeds; Ulva fasciata (Chlorophyta), Sargassum linifolium (Phaeophyta) and Corallina officinalis (Rhodophyta). Total chlorophyll content was maximum in U. fasciata (34.06mg/g dry wt.) while carotenoid content was the highest in C. officinalis (3.8 mg/g dry wt.). The uppermost leve

11. Avaliação da Biodiversidade de Macroalgas Lóticas pela Aplicação do Índice de Distintividade Taxonômica
O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a diversidade de quatro divisões de algas de riachos (Cyanobacteria, Chlorophyta, Ochrophyta e Rhodophyta), comparando os resultados obtidos com o índice de distintividade taxonômica com os padrões de diversidade encontrados em trabalhos anteriores. Os dados foram coletados a partir de um estudo feito em 1000 segmentos

12. Evaluation of acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity of Brazilian red macroalgae organic extracts
Abstract Alzheimer's disease affects nearly 36.5 million people worldwide, and acetylcholinesterase inhibition is currently considered the main therapeutic strategy against it. Seaweed biodiversity in Brazil represents one of the most important sources of biologically active compounds for applications in phytotherapy. Accordingly, this study aimed to carry o
