| Description | Macroalgae are one of the most important marine living renewable resources and are used for human consumption, animal feed and fertilizer in many countries. Nine species of macroalgae belonging to Chlorophyta and Rhodophyta divisions, namely, Chaetomorpha crassa, Chaetomorpha linum, Ulva rigida, Caulerpa racemosa, Caulerpa brachypus, Caulerpa lentillifera, Caulerpa taxifolia, Gracilaria tenuistipitata and Gracilaria fisheri, were cultured in a closed system with Guillard’s f/2 medium for three weeks. After rearing, C. lentillifera achieved the highest growth rate, followed by U. rigida and C. crassa were 7.28±0.69, 2.66±0.83 and 2.64±0.91 g/day, respectively. In addition, C. taxifolia had the highest protein 33.83±0.21% and lipid 3.26±0.44% contents, and the maximum carbohydrate 67.84±0.04%, fiber 34.29±0.40% and ash 47.80±0.87% contents found in U. rigida, C. crassa and C. lentillifera, respectively. Knowledge of the essential compositions in the macroalgae could lead to potential development of novel seaweed products in the future. |
