The nutritional value of edible freshwater Alga Cladophora sp. (Chlorophyta) grown under different phosphorus concentrations

Culture of an edible freshwater alga Cladophora sp. was subjected to phosphorus (P) supply (1.07-14.78 mg L -1 of PO 4 -P) in order to determine its proximate compositions, vitamins, minerals and carotenoid compositions. The alga was mass cultured by using 10% of canteen wastewater with the additio...

Traichaiyaporn S. Culture of an edible freshwater alga Cladophora sp. was subjected to phosphorus (P) supply (1.07-14.78 mg L -1 of PO 4 -P) in order to determine its proximate compositions, vitamins, minerals and carotenoid compositions. The alga was mass cultured by using 10% of canteen wastewater with the addition of di-potassium hydrogen orthophosphate at the concentrations of 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 mg L -1 . The results showed that with increased P concentration, protein, vitamin A, P, β-carotene, lutein and zeaxanthin contents increased but carbohydrate content decreased indicating that P supply could enhance carotenoid production and some nutritional values of this alga. © 2011 Friends Science Publishers. 2017-09-28T06:47:52Z 2017-09-28T06:47:52Z 2011-02-28 Journal 15608530 2-s2.0-79951872094 https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?partnerID=HzOxMe3b&scp=79951872094&origin=inward http://cmuir.cmu.ac.th/jspui/handle/6653943832/43100
