Description Results obtaiined on the yield of alginic acid and mannitol contents of
Stoechospermum marginatum carried out for one ye:ir during 1976 are presented.
Young plants of S. marginatum appeared from May and June and reached harvestable
size in September. The yield of alginx acid and ni'tnnitol was found to be
lower than Sargassum and Turbinaria spp. The alginic add content was found to be
high during the months September to Decemiber. Alginic acid content varied from
14.5 to 23.8% and the mannitol content Vc^ied from 1.2 to 2.7%.
