Abstract

Seaweeds are microalgae growing in coastal regions and resistant to salinity. Seaweeds are rich resources of natural nutrients some of which cannot be obtained from terrestrial plants. Bioactive compounds of seaweeds such as sulphated polysaccharides, peptides, minerals, phlorotannins, carotenoids and sulfolipids have proven health benefits against various diseases. Traditionally, seaweeds are used as folk medicine for treating diseases like goiter, wounds, burns, rashes, inflammation, diabetes and also gaining attention of pharmaceutical industries due to their anti-cancer, anti-aging, anti-angiogenesis, anti-bacterial, anti-viral and antioxidant properties. Seaweeds polysaccharides have wide applications in foods as well as in pharmaceutical industry due to their bio-chemical properties such as stabilizer, emulsifier and gelling property. In food industry, seaweed polysaccharides are used as a functional ingredient in many products such as frozen foods, ice-cream, jam, jelly, beverages etc. Several commercial food preparations from seaweeds are also available in the market such as sea salt, nori snack wasabi, pink rock salt, seaweed thins toasted coconuts, crunchy seaweed chips, raw unroasted seaweed under different brand names. The present review is a compilation of nutritional, pharmacological and food properties of seaweeds along with its potential towards development of functional foods.
海藻
海藻是生长在沿海地区的微藻,耐盐。海藻是丰富的天然营养资源,有些营养物质是陆生植物所不能获得的。海藻的生物活性化合物,如硫酸盐多糖、多肽、矿物质、绿单宁、类胡萝卜素和磺胺类,已被证明对预防各种疾病有益。传统上,海藻被用作民间药物,用于治疗甲状腺肿、伤口、烧伤、皮疹、炎症、糖尿病等疾病,并且由于其抗癌、抗衰老、抗血管生成、抗菌、抗病毒和抗氧化的特性而受到制药行业的关注。海藻多糖由于具有稳定剂、乳化剂和凝胶性等生物化学特性,在食品和制药工业中有着广泛的应用。在食品工业中,海藻多糖被用作冷冻食品、冰淇淋、果酱、果冻、饮料等产品的功能性成分。市场上也有几种由海藻制成的商业食品,如海盐、海苔零食山葵、粉红色岩盐、海带薄烤椰子、脆海带片、不同品牌的生未烤海带。本文综述了海藻的营养、药理和食用特性及其在功能性食品开发方面的潜力。
