Algae Materials and their Applications

Through algal biotechnology several products can be obtained by cultivating algae to produce a wide range of health care, food products, nutraceuticals, biofuels and other products. The key factor is to recognize the usages of algae due to their faster growth rate. Algae Materials and their Applications offers a comprehensive analysis of biosensors, algae materials for clinical applications, algae polymers, proteins and pigments, algae for food applications and packaging, blue economy, algae forming, cosmetics etc. It enlists the less explored areas of algal bioproducts like how applications of genetic engineering are currently used to enhance bioproducts.
