Index
Additional Information
The book is intended to contribute the improvement understanding of the valorization of underused marine resources through the macroalgae characterization and performance in numerous application fields from the food to the non-food industries. Then, people related to the seaweeds extracts, especially bioactive or gelling biopolymer-based fractions could be interested in the book. Those researches who work on the revalorization of new materials, from food to non-food applications (biomedicine, pharmaceutical, automotive, among others).
