Gracilaria studies at SEAFDEC/AQD
(Network of Aquaculture Centres in Asia-Pacific, 1996)
Research in seaweed from 1988–1994 focused on the agar producing Gracilaria. Studies in the following areas were also conducted: inventory of the seaweed resources; production ecology; farming systems; and agar characterisation. ...
Monthly variation of agar quality of some gracilarioids from the Philippines (Rhodophyta, Gracilariaceae)
(San Carlos Publications, University of San Carlos, 2004)
Species of the economically important gracilarioid seaweeds from the Philippines were studied to determine the monthly variation in agar quality. Yield, gel strength, melting and gelling temperatures, and sulfate contents ...
Agar yield, gel strength and sulfate content in Gracilariopsis heteroclada farmed in brackishwater canals
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1996)
This paper aimed at determining the optimum NaOH pretreatment strength and duration and the monthly variations in gel strength, agar yield and sulfate content of agar from Gracilariopsis heteroclada (Zhang et Xia) farmed ...
Growth, agar yield and quality of selected agarophyte species from the Philippines
(Walter de Gruyter, 2000)
Three local agarophyte species (Gracilaria firma, Gracilaria sp. and Gracilariopsis bailinae) were grown under controlled outdoor flow-through culture conditions. Growth rates and agar characteristics of the three species ...
Evaluation of agar from three species of Gracilaria from Panay and Guimaras islands
(San Carlos Publications, University of San Carlos, 1993)
Agar from three species of Gracilaria, G. changii G. coronopifolia, and Gracilariopsis heteroclada, collected form Panay and Guimaras islands was evaluated. Each species was pretreated with NaOH solution before extraction. ...
