Ecosystem Services Provided by Seaweeds

João Cotas, Louisa Gomes, Diana Pacheco et al. · 9 Jan 2023

The ecosystem services can be divided using two major classification systems, the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MEA) and the Common International Classification of Ecosystem Services (CICES). In the MEA system, the ecosystem services are divided into four major service clusters: supporting, provisioning, regulating, and cultural. On the other hand, the CICES system regards the “MEA supporting…

Pharmaceuticals in Water: Risks to Aquatic Life and Remediation Strategies

Aqib Hassan Ali Khan, Rocío Barros · 14 Jun 2023

The presence of pharmaceuticals in the aquatic environment presents a challenge to modern science. The most significant impact this can induce is the emergence of antibiotic resistance, which can lead to a global health emergency. It is important to note that the impact of pharmaceuticals in the aquatic environment is not limited to antibiotic resistance.…

Phycoremediation: Use of Algae to Sequester Heavy Metals

Ankit, Kuldeep Bauddh, John Korstad · 1 Jul 2022

Industrialization, natural processes, and urbanization have potentially accelerated the pace and the level of heavy metals (HMs) in soil and underground water. These HMs may be accumulated in plants and animals when they take up such contaminated water, and then make their way into human food chains. Several remediation technologies have been employed to take…

Small Indigenous Fish: A Potential Source of Valuable Nutrients in the Context of Bangladesh

Md. Rakibul Islam, Momota Yeasmin, Sultana Sadia et al. · 6 Feb 2023

Peoples can readily and affordably obtain small indigenous fish species (SIS), with a maximum length of 25 cm, that can be found in niches in small bodies of water (such as canals, ponds, wetlands, streams, etc.). SIS contribute valuable and significant macro- and micronutrients in Bangladesh. SIS are excellent suppliers of vitamins and minerals. The…

Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Potential of Seaweed Extracts as Functional Ingredients

Helena M. Amaro, Fernando Pagels, Tânia G. Tavares et al. · 1 Nov 2022

The use of seaweed as a source of bioactive extracts has received increased attention from the market in recent years—particularly for nutraceutical applications. In this context, this study evaluated the nutraceutical application of seaweed biomass and extracts from three seaweeds from Portugal: Ulva sp., Laminaria ochroleuca, and Chondrus crispus. For each of the said seaweeds,…
