Nutritive value of marine algae Laminaria japonica and Undaria pinnatifida.
The chemical composition, that is crude proteins, fats, carbohydrates, cellulose, ashes, minerals and nucleic acids were determined in two commercially available marine algae: Laminaria japonica and Undaria pinnatifida. The energetic value and energetic share of proteins, fats and carbohydrates were calculated. The results were discussed in terms of importance of marine algae in human diet.
