Currently, seaweed represents a vast source of raw materials used in the pharmaceutical, food, traditional medicine, and cosmetics industries. They are nutritionally valuable, both fresh and dried, or as ingredients in a wide variety of pre-made foods. In particular, seaweed contains significant amounts of protein, lipids, minerals, and vitamins. Information is limited on the role of algae and their metabolites in therapy. Only a few taxa have been studied for use in medicine. Many traditional cultures report the healing powers of selected algae in tropical and subtropical marine forms. This is especially true in the maritime areas of Asia, where the sea plays a significant role in daily activities. However, currently, only a few genera and species of algae are involved in aspects of medicine and therapy. The beneficial uses of seaweed or seaweed products include those that can mimic specific manifestations of human disease, production of antibiotic compounds, or improved human nutrition. 606 $aBiology, life sciences$2bicssc 610 $aadjuvant 610 $aagriculture 610 $aalginate 610 $aalkaline phosphatase 610 $aanticoagulant activity 610 $aantigen-specific antibody 610 $aantitumour activity 610 $aBlack Sea 610 $abromophenols 610 $acancer stem cells 610 $acarotenoids 610 $acarrageenan 610 $achemical risk 610 $achemical sulfation 610 $achlorophylls 610 $acolorectal cancer 610 $aCystoseira barbata 610 $acytotoxicity 610 $adiffusion model 610 $aEcklonia cava 610 $aedible seaweed 610 $aenzymatic extracts 610 $aEPA 610 $afeed 610 $afood 610 $aFTIR-ATR 610 $afunctional substance 610 $aHDL-C 610 $ahealth 610 $ahealth functionality 610 $aheavy metals adsorption 610 $aHPLC 610 $ahuBM-MSC 610 $aisolation 610 $akeratinocytes 610 $aLDL-C 610 $alow molecular weight fucoidan 610 $amacro algae 610 $amacroalgae/seaweed 610 $amarine algae 610 $amicrobial risk 610 $aminerals 610 $amono and polysaccharides 610 $aMycoplasma pneumoniae 610 $an-3 PUFAs 610 $an/a 610 $anatural resources 610 $aNK cell 610 $aNMR 610 $anutritional value 610 $aomics-based technology 610 $aOsmundea pinnatifida 610 $aosteoblast 610 $aparticulate matter 610 $aphlorofucofuroeckol A 610 $aphlorotannin 610 $aprocessed laver product 610 $aprocessing technology 610 $aquantification 610 $araw laver 610 $areactive oxygen species 610 $aSargassum muticum 610 $aseaweeds 610 $aTC 610 $aTC reduction 610 $aTG 610 $aUlva rigida 610 $aulvan 615 7$aBiology, life sciences 700 $aPereira$b Leonel$4auth$01296958 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910404089303321 996 $aCharacterization of Bioactive Components in Edible Algae$93024331 997 $aUNINA
