Antioxidative and antimicrobial activities of intertidal seaweeds and possible effects of abiotic factors on these bioactivities
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Journal of Oceanology and Limnology"
DOI: 10.1007/s00343-019-7046-z
Abstract: To overcome acute physiological stress from frequent exposure to high irradiance levels and emersion stress, seaweeds colonizing intertidal zones generate valuable secondary metabolites. Their chemical composition is influenced by spatial changes in environmental parameters, and… read more here.
