Biomass soaking treatments to reduce potentially undesirable compounds in the edible seaweeds sugar kelp (Saccharina latissima) and winged kelp (Alaria esculenta) and health risk estimation for human consumption
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Samples of cultivated edible kelps Alaria esculenta and Saccharina latissima were analysed for their cadmium, iodine and inorganic arsenic contents. The inorganic arsenic levels were low in both species but samples of A. ... -
Composition analysis and minimal treatments to solubilize 6 polysaccharides from the brown seaweed Laminaria digitata 7 for microbial growth of thermophiles
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Brown macroalgae (Phaeophyta) hold high potential as feedstock for biorefineries due to high biomass productivity and carbohydrate content. They are, however, a challenging, unconventional feedstock for microbial refining ... -
Effects of drying on the nutrient content and physico-chemical and sensory characteristics of the edible kelp Saccharina latissima
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The effects of convective air-drying at 25, 40, and 70 °C and freeze-drying on the quality of the edible kelp Saccharina latissima to be used for food were investigated. Based on the analysis of the carbohydrate and amino ... -
The effects of freezing and thawing on Alaria esculenta
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Seaweeds must be stabilised shortly after harvesting to avoid rapid deterioration. To handle large amounts harvested during a short period, freezing and frozen storage until utilisation or further processing is one of the ... -
Nutritional value of the kelps Alaria esculenta and Saccharina latissima and effects of short-term storage on biomass quality
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Storage of macroalgae in seawater, prior to further processing, is a standard initial pre-treatment step after harvest to avoid rapid degradation of the biomass. In the context of using seaweeds in human food and animal ...
