Agar, alginate, and carrageenan are hydrocolloids made from seaweed. They are highly valued and used widely for their gelling, thickening, and stabilization properties. Many seaweed components contain ...

The method of encasing stem cells in an alginate gel made from seaweed makes them practical to use, adaptable and easy to store -- even at room temperature. Advanced Search. Home; ...

Alginate is one of the substances extracted from algae and is by far the best known. This sugar is used in over 600 products, and selling it is no problem. It is used in ice cream, in various gels ...

In this case, researchers wanted to make a fiber that combined the properties of chitin, a strong, antimicrobial material derived from crab shells, and alginate, a compound found in seaweed that ...

A group of diatom species belonging to the Nitzschia genus gave up on photosynthesis and now get their carbon straight from their environment, thanks to a bacterial gene picked up by an ancestor.

It's all thanks to seaweed extract, otherwise known as alginate, a natural fibre found in sea kelp, says Jeffrey Pearson, a professor of molecular physiology at Newcastle University in the UK.
