Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/05/2018 -- Marine algae are the storehouse of diverse, interesting, and valuable products, many of which are still unexplored. Biomaterials and extracts derived from marine algae play a significant role in several products including cosmetics, pharmaceutical, and food. Marine algae are loaded with minerals, essential amino acids, omega 3 fatty acids, proteins, lipids, polysaccharides, vitamins such as A, B, C, & E, and dietary fibers. It also possesses bioactivities such as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, and anti-cancer. Various studies have shown that marine algae derivatives modulate the effects of oxidative stress, thereby protecting cells. Oxidative stress plays a crucial role in carcinogenesis. In inflammatory reactions, marine algae derivatives find applications in anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer drugs. The most common and considerably used marine algae are red algae, green algae, brown algae, and blue-green algae. Polysaccharides such as carrageenan and agar from red algae have been used in research laboratories and food industries for a long time, owing to the thickening, gelling, and stabilizing properties. Red, green, brown, and blue-green algae also possess radical scavenging and antioxidant properties. Marine algae extracts are used in antioxidant capsules containing Spirulina extract, carotenoid extracts in oral capsules, and other algal extracts in functional food for pets, biofertilizers, and biofuels, among others. These extracts also possess antimicrobial properties.
The global Marine Algae Extracts/Products Market is driven by applications of natural products derived from marine algae in various industries such as food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. Pharmaceutical companies are gearing up to research on several compounds that could fight against a wide range of critical illnesses. Hence, the significance of marine algae-derived drugs is expected to increase. Several marine algae-derived products are available in the global market.
