Process optimization of hydrocolloid production from seaweeds

This study was undertaken to find the optimum conditions for the extraction of hydrocolloids from seaweed of species Gracilarza changii. Recent trend of seaweed industry in producing hydrocolloids component shows a decline because of the high cost of production. Hence, an optimum parameter is now...
