Abstract(s)

Beach-cast seaweeds are a seasonal phenomenon consisting of the accumulation of large tons of algae on beaches, which is unpleasant for beach users and affects the tourism industry, mainly because tourists often interpret stranded natural litter as lowering beach quality, especially if the material starts to decompose. These beach casts are always variable mixtures of different species of seagrass and seaweeds. The present work aimed to contribute to the valorisation of this biomass by studying its chemical composition and bioactivities that reveal its potential in the pharmaceutical and/or cosmeceutical industries.
