Title Artificial seawater for seaweed culture
 
Creator Kaladharan, P
 
Subject Seaweed
 
Description Artificial seawater prepared with simplified recipes was found suitable for
maintaining seaweeds of commercial importance under laboratory conditions. The
suitability of this artificial seawater formulation studied by gain or loss of wet
weight of seaweeds incubated, showed 15.5% increase in specific growth rate in
the case of Gracilaria corticata and 18% increase in the case of Ulva lactuca.
However, Gracilaria edulis showed 14% decrease over the control. Physicochemical
characteristics of artificial seawater were compared with these of natural
seawater.
