- Abstract:
- ... Cell wall related polysaccharides of the red microalga Porphyridium sp. were shown to be a promising source of new sustainable thickening agents. Isolated extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) consisted of high molecular weight polymers, showing a higher intrinsic viscosity compared to several commercially used hydrocolloids. Aqueous solutions of EPS (2% w/w) were characterized by substantial viscos ...

- Abstract:
- ... Microalgae are rich in several nutritional and health-beneficial components, showing great potential as functional food ingredients. To this extent, knowledge of the biomass composition is essential in the selection of suitable microalgae species for specific food applications. Surprisingly, although cell wall polysaccharides are generally reported to play a role in functionality, limited attentio ...

- Abstract:
- ... Microalgae are a promising and sustainable source for enhancing the nutritional value of food products. Moreover, incorporation of the total biomass might contribute to the structural properties of the enriched food product. Our previous study demonstrated the potential of Porphyridium cruentum and Chlorella vulgaris as multifunctional food ingredients, as they displayed interesting rheological pr ...
