SWEAWEED

SWEAWEED (Swedish Seaweed) is an interdisciplinary collaboration on sustainable #seaweed research between @goteborgsuni, @chalmersuniv and @KTHuniversity.

Happy to share this preprint, where we present the design and validation of a molecular toolkit in the green seaweed Ulva mutabilis (sea lettuce):

It´s #phycologyfriday and time for a NEW ARTICLE!
Latest study shows: the geographical location has effects on potentially valuable components in #Ulva intestinalis sampled along the Swedish coast.

Varying cultivation conditions have considerable effects on the growth and biochemical composition of #Ulva fenestrata! https://t.co/2GtDkHuWqm

You are interested in how #seaweeds can be used in the future?
Watch this video that perfectly summarizes our #research to enable a sustainable production of cellulose from seaweed biomass.

"The extraction and refining processes of interesting compounds from #seaweeds is a hot #research topic"

Read through this very nice interview the @NCC_CNC
had with one of our co-workers and get to know a little bit more of the everyday work of a conservationist in #Sweden @goteborgsuni

After we had some stormy days in the archipelago our #seafarm is located in, we checked for the seedlings of our #kelp #aquaculture today. Look how beautiful our #seaweed is growing - @goteborgsuni

These are juvenile individuals of the northern hemisphere sea lettuce, #Ulva. We are ready for this year‘s #seaweed cultivation!

The market demand of cellulose-based materials is steadily increasing. #Seaweeds can be used as an important #sustainable #future supplier. Read more in our recently published #research article: https://t.co/nMwF6MP9vp

Are you interested in how specific chemicals can be isolated from #seaweeds and what could be their future application? Our new #research article on the cell wall polysaccharide Ulvan anwers these questions - @KTHuniversity, @chalmersuniv

[SWEAWEED @SweaweedProject]

The increasing global population needs alternative and more #sustainable #protein sources. But how can we optimize the extraction process of proteins from #seaweed?
Our new #research article focuses exactly on this question: https://t.co/lktOPAqo0q

#HealthyFood #futurefood #Ulva

[SWEAWEED @SweaweedProject]

#Seaweed protein can become the next green alternative to animal #protein. But can we digest it and take it up? Our #research conducted @chalmersuniv is using in vitro models to get answers to these important questions!

[Sophie Steinhagen @S_Steinhagen]

The sea lettuce (#Ulva) appears in various forms. But do they all behave the same under cultivation conditions? A question that our #research within the @SweaweedProject @uniofgothenburg addresses!

[SWEAWEED @SweaweedProject]

Our ongoing diversity assessment of Swedish #seaweeds compiled @uniofgothenburg brought us to several of such beautiful spots in the #Skagerrak. Here you can see a healthy community of different Fucus spp. and Ascophyllum nodosum.

A sustainable #aquaculture starts with healthy seedlings. Watch our 4 weeks old #Ulva seedlings grow!

Field work at our #seaweed cultivation site in the #Kosterfjord, #Sweden today. The winter cultivation of our seaweed is ongoing.
