Micro- and Macroalgae: An Updated View

CRC Press eBooks (2021)

A. Arun Kulanthaiyesu Arunkumar Isabel S. Carvalho N Mangaiyarkarasi K. Nayana

Algae are highly significant photosynthetic thalloid. They are the major producers in all aquatic systems and are capable of growing in almost all wet habitats. They may be freshwater or marine, floating or benthic, micro or macro, unicellular or multicellular. Algae include red, green, and brown algae, and diatoms, cyanobacteria, and dinoflagellates. They are regarded as third-generation biofuel, a promising source of cheap bioenergy production with less input. They are used for food, food supplements, feedstocks, fertilizers, pharmaceuticals, dyes, fuel, agar, water treatments, and pollution control. We were mistaken in thinking that vegetables only grew on land in soil; they can also be grown in the sea. Cooking sea vegetables is very simple and easy to serve in our favourite dishes, and there are plenty of sea vegetables that are full of flavour and have many health benefits. Nutritionists and chefs around the world consider sea vegetables as important members of the vegetable family. They are neither plants nor animals, but are classified in a group known as 'algae', popularly known as seaweeds. They grow on coral reefs or rocky surfaces in the sea.

Assessment of nutrient digestibility in broiler finisher ration supplemented with different levels of bael (Aegle marmelos) fruit powder and probiotics

Journal of Veterinary and Animal Sciences (2024)

Nand Kumar K. Jasmine Rani Biju Chacko S. Senthil Murugan K. C. Bipin

A nutrient digestibility trial was conducted to evaluate the effect of supplementation of bael (Aegle marmelos) fruit powder and probiotics on the nutrient digestibility of finisher ration of broiler chickens. A total of 192-day-old Vencobb 430 Y broiler chicks were randomly divided into six dietary treatments (T1, T2, T3, T4, T5 and T6), each having four replicates with eight birds per replicate. The birds were fed with a basal diet (T1), basal diet + 0.1 per cent bael fruit powder (BFP) (T2), basal diet + 0.2 per cent BFP (T3), basal diet + 0.1 per cent BFP + 0.01 per cent L. plantarum (1 × 109 CFU/Kg diet) (T4), basal diet + 0.2 per cent BFP + 0.01 per cent L. plantarum (T5), and diet with 0.01 per cent L. plantarum (T6), respectively. All the birds were fed as per BIS (2007) recommendations. One bird from each group was selected randomly for the three-day metabolism trial conducted on the 42nd day of the experiment. The results of the study revealed that supplementation of bael fruit powder and probiotics at different combinations showed a significant (P<0.05) increase in ether extract and NFE digestibility compared to the control. The dietary treatments did not affect the dry matter, crude protein, crude fibre and organic matter digestibility in birds. Further, it was concluded that 0.1 per cent bael fruit powder supplementation in finisher ration showed better digestibility of nutrients in broiler chicken. Keywords: Bael fruit, L. plantarum, nutrient digestibility, broiler finisher ration

Arsenic, a contaminant of groundwater and irrigated crops, is a global public health hazard. Exposure to low levels of arsenic through food extends well beyond the areas with high arsenic content in water.

Quality assessment of ensiled hybrid Napier grass by in-vitro fermentation techniques

World Journal of Advanced Research and Reviews (2024)

Akhil Prasad K. A K. Nayana

The present study was conducted to evaluate silage made from hybrid Napier grass (Pennisetum purpureum) ensiled in the laboratory using various additives with regard to sensory and chemical characteristics. Four different silages were prepared viz., grass ensiled without additives (GS) as control, and grass silage with Lactobacillus plantarum at 1 x 105 CFU per gram of fresh forage (GSL), grass silage with propionic acid at the rate 0.45 kg per ton of fodder (GSA), and grass silage with combination of Lactobacillus plantarum (1 x 105 CFU per gram of fresh forage) and propionic acid (0.45 kg per ton of fodder) (GSLA). Silage was opened on 21 days of ensiling and assessed the sensory and chemical characteristics. From the overall results, it could be concluded that hybrid Napier grass, ensiled for 21 days using L. plantarum was effective in preserving its nutritive value.

Microalgae

CRC Press eBooks (2024)

D. Vidya K. Nayana A. Srinivasa Rao C. Periyasamy K. Suresh Kumar

Pharmaceutical compounds derived from microalgae are still in their infancy, but they could eventually lead to the creation of new medications. Manufacturing of these substances The market potential for microalgae is expected to rise in the near future, providing opportunities for new biotechnological endeavors that aim to produce more biomass for human use, provided that the demand for food and medicine does not become a hindrance. For the production of chemicals used in medicines and nutraceuticals such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), carotenoids, phycobiliproteins, polysaccharides, and phycotoxins, microalgae may be a sustainable supply.
