Seaweed Phenolics as Natural Antioxidants, Aquafeed Additives, Veterinary Treatments and Cross-Linkers for Microencapsulation

Tharuka Gunathilake et al.

Summary: Driven by consumer demand and government policies, the use of synthetic additives in aquafeed needs to be replaced with sustainable and natural alternatives. Seaweeds, as a sustainable marine source, contain bioactive phenolic compounds that can be used in various applications such as food, animal feed, aqua feeds, or microencapsulation. Seaweed phenolics, specifically phlorotannins found in brown seaweed, have unique structures and multiple antioxidant mechanisms. They can bind to proteins through covalent and non-covalent bonds, exhibiting specific bioactivities. Additionally, they can enhance the rheological and mechanical properties of food-grade delivery systems, showing the versatility of seaweed phenolics.
