Brown seaweeds are attracting attention due to their richness in bioactive compounds, in particular, their phlorotannins. We present here a case study of two Fucales, Ascophyllum nodosum and Halidrys siliquosa, sustainably collected, to produce active polyphenols for the cosmetics sector. Phenolic contents of crude extracts, obtained by Accelerated...
Marine algae, representing a polyphyletic group, are considered as a rich food source as these organisms produce a great variety of molecules including proteins, polysaccharides, dietary fiber, amino acids, minerals, vitamins, and aromatic compounds. Among them, phenolic compounds are metabolites present in various organisms, including marine algae...
This study was focused on the phenolic content and associated cosmetic activities of seven brown marine macroalgae: Alaria esculenta, Ascophyllum nodosum, Bifurcaria bifurcata, Fucus serratus, Halidrys siliquosa, Himanthalia elongata, and Laminaria ochroleuca, selected for their abundance in Brittany and their phlorotannin production. Phlorotannins...
Most marine macroalgae live attached to a substrate in coastal areas characterized by a very variable environment mainly due to the tide cycle which is more or less important depending on the geographical situation. Macroalgae spread over coastal zones according to their resistance to several abiotic and biotic factors. Some species are thus presen...
La recherche de molécules naturelles dans de nombreux domaines industriels se développe dans une optique d’éco-responsabilité, notamment en cosmétique. Les macroalgues sont une ressource intéressante, riche en de nombreux métabolites tels que les composés phénoliques qui présentent des activités photoprotectrices, antioxydantes ou encore anti-âge....
Marine macroalgae living in coastal areas are subjected to numerous environmental factors which have an impact on their physiology. To face these stresses, some species are able to develop chemical strategies like the production of phenolic compounds. Britanny is known to have a high diversity of seaweeds. The aim of the project RIV-AGE 2.0 is to o...
