The fatty acid (FA) composition of six macroalgae from the Cystoseira genus, namely Cystoseira compressa, Cystoseira humilis, Cystoseira tamariscifolia, Cystoseira nodicaulis, Cystoseira baccata and Cystoseira barbata, was determined. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) corresponded to 29-46% of the total FA detected. C. compressa, C. tamariscifolia and C. nodicaulis stood out for their low PUFA/saturated fatty acid, low n-6 PUFA/n-3 PUFA ratios as well as favourable unsaturation, atherogenicity and thrombogenicity indices, suggesting a high nutritional value with potential applications in the nutraceutical industry.
测定了来自囊链藻属的六种大型海藻的脂肪酸(FA)组成,即扁囊链藻、矮囊链藻、柽柳囊链藻、瘤茎囊链藻、浆果囊链藻和具髯囊链藻。多不饱和脂肪酸(PUFA)占检测到的总脂肪酸的29%-46%。扁囊链藻、柽柳囊链藻和瘤茎囊链藻因其低PUFA/饱和脂肪酸、低n-6 PUFA/n-3 PUFA比值以及良好的不饱和度、致动脉粥样化性和血栓形成性指数而脱颖而出,表明其具有较高的营养价值,在营养保健品行业具有潜在应用价值。
