Effect of storage on the physicochemical properties of packed raw dried seaweed (kappaphycus alvarezii)

Semi-refined carrageenan (SRC) is important as hydrocolloid which acts as gelling agent, thickening agent, and a stabilizing agent in food and non-food product. Alkaline treatment is carried out to obtain the SRC from seaweed Kappaphycus alvarezii. Previously , storage studies was found that only Gl...
