Marine Biopolymers : Processing, Functionality and Applications, Paperback / softback Book

Paperback / softback

Description

Marine Biopolymers: Processing, Functionality and Applications focuses on recent developments in the isolation, characterization, and processability of these materials for biomedical, nutraceutical, cosmetic, and regenerative medicine applications.

This book is a valuable reference resource for scientific and academic researchers, industrial R&D and those working in the marine biotechnology industries that produce microalgae and natural bioproducts.

The book will also be relevant for researchers working in aquaculture, biology, bioenergy, and biofuels production, as well as food and nutrition, cosmetics, and the pharmaceutical industry. The marine environment represents a huge single resource for the development of natural biobased materials with enhanced, well-characterized and multi-functional properties.

The isolation, characterization, and processability of these materials are crucial for the development of the marine biotechnological industries.

In recent years, novel biobased materials have been extracted from marine habitats that have been proven to have exceptional wound-healing characteristics and anti-cancer therapeutic benefits.

Moreover, some components based on marine resources can play a key role in medicinal food applications, in cosmetics as well as in the pharmaceutical sector.
