Fourteen commonly occurring species of marine benthic algae were collected from the coastal area near Karachi (Pakistan) during March 1996 to September 1997 and extracted in methanol. A variety saturated unsaturated fatty acids (FAs) detected extracts analyzed as methyl esters qualitatively well quantitatively by gas chromatographic (GLC & GC-MS) techniques. Some sterols have also been detected, isolated purified, their structure elucidated chemically through standard spectroscopic methods...
The fresh specimens of Champia compressa Harvey, Gelidium usmanghanii Afaq-Husain and M. Shameel, Gracilaria foliifera (Forsskål) Børgesen Hypnea musciformis (Wulfen) J. V. Lamouroux, were collected from the coastal areas Karachi (Pakistan) their yield agar was observed. With preextraction technique percentage algal found to range 13 28%. High quality gel strength determined by modulus elasticity i.e. (550 – 612g/cm2) 1090 kPa extraction time 2 hrs. structure contents investigated FT-IR...
Abstract Two species of Gelidium , usmanghanii and pusillum var. pakistanicum are reported only from Pakistan, but their taxonomic status, phylogenetic relationships, distributions have not been assessed with molecular data. Analysis rbc L sequences revealed that G. was a distinct distribution extending at least to the coast Oman. This analysis also resolved within millariana complex distantly related . Further analyses COI-5P showed in this complex, based on these molecular, previous...
Seaweeds contain many macronutrients including protein, therefore they can be utilized to fulfil the protein requirements of human beings. This research focused on extracting total in green seaweed Ulva anandii (Amjad et Shameel 1993), from crude extracts, by using trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and acetone precipitation methods, estimation extract (water-soluble proteins), those obtained two above-mentioned methods. The results indicate that water-soluble proteins had highest quantity...
Garlic (Allium sativum) is an important cash food crop, and the biotechnology industry has considerable interest in plant because of its medicinal importance. These properties are attributed to organosulphur compounds as accumulation these varies according genotype, locality, light quality, cultivation practices. In this study, we compared a newly developed garlic variety NARC-G1 by National Agricultural Research Centre (NARC), Islamabad, Pakistan with three different cultivars highlighted...
A filamentous blue-green alga, Lyngbya confervoides (Oscillatoriaceae, Nostocales), was collected from coastal areas of Karachi during April 2011 − June 2012 and investigated for its morphology, cytology, reproduction. This is the first report occurrence in waters Pakistan.
