Pharmacological and cosmeceutical potential of Seaweed Beach-Casts of Macaronesia
Zárate, Rafael; Portillo, Eduardo; Teixidó, Sílvia; Carvalho, Miguel A. A. Pinheiro de; Nunes, Nuno; Ferraz, Sónia; Seca, Ana M. L.; Rosa, Gonçalo P.Seaweed beach-casts are a seasonal phenomenon that regularly deposits tons of algae biomass on beaches, which are usually disposed of in landfills. The present work aimed to contribute to the valorization of this biomass by studying bioactivities that reveal its potential in the pharmaceutical and/or cosmeceutical industries. Methanol and ethanol extracts and fractions from 15 beach-casts biomass were tested fo...
