Kappaphycus alvarezii, the elkhorn sea moss, is a species of red algae. The elkhorn sea moss varies in size, weight, and age. It is a dark greenish-brown hue and can sometimes be deep purple. The moss is cylindrical in shape throughout the seaweed. Its diameter averages 1.526 mm when dried. [1]
Oct 1, 2023 · Kappaphycus alvarezii, a species of red algae (Rhodophyta) formerly known as Eucheuma cottonii, has been widely utilised for its nutritional benefits.
Jul 1, 2021 · Kappaphycus alvarezii production over a 45-day trial period at 10 sites in Indonesia was highly variable. Product quality parameters (carrageenan content, gel strength and viscosity) also varied. This variability provides the basis to assess the potential for better-performing stains to improve farm productivity.
Kappaphycus alvarezii is the 5th world's most cultivated macroalgae, since it is an essential source of carrageenan, widely used in food industry. However, K. alvarezii is an unexplored biomass for green biorefinery conversion, since its composition includes valuable proteins, lipids, phenolic compounds, among others.
Kappaphycus alvarezii, a fast-growing, tropical red alga widely cultivated for its hydrocolloid content, is a promising source of bioactive compounds that improve plant growth, including imparted tolerance to some levels of abiotic and biotic stressors in harsh environmental conditions.
May 10, 2022 · There are three major types of carrageenan found in red algae: kappa (κ)-, iota (ι)-, and lambda (λ)-carrageenan. Kappaphycus alvarezii is the most common kappa-carrageenan source, and it is primarily farmed in Asian countries such as Indonesia, the Philippines, Vietnam, and Malaysia.
Mar 1, 2024 · K. alvarezii (previously known as Eucheuma cottonii) is arguably the most important natural producer based on annual production size and near-homogeneity of the product (i.e., primarily being the kappa-type).
Jan 27, 2022 · This research aimed to determining physical and chemical characteristics of Kappaphycus alvarezii carrageenan from Bontang and and East Kutai. The method carrageenan extraction process was...
Since our last review in 2017, the main progress related to Kappaphycus alvarezii farming in Brazil came from southern Brazil. The region is a hot spot in marine aquaculture because of its tradition in mollusk farming. In 2020, after 12 years of studies and...
Dec 3, 2020 · Kappaphycus alvarezii is the most widely grown seaweed known by the commercial name “ cottoni .” Several types or strains of K. alvarezii are grown in Indonesia, and each has a different ...
