Uses of Algae Including Agar, Alginates, Energy Sources, Fertilizers, Nutrition, and Stabilizing Substances

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.

Today algae is used by humans in many ways; for example, as fertilizers, soil conditioners and livestock feed. Agar, a gelatinous substance derived from red algae, has a number of commercial uses. Algae is the national food of many nations: China consumes more than 70 species, including fat choy, a cyanobacterium which is considered a vegetable. Carrageenan, from the red alga Chondrus crispus, is used as a stabiliser in milk products. This book studies various domestic and commercial uses of algae including agar plate, algae fuel, porphyra, nori, and laver.
