Article Synopsis
- Green microalgae from Ecuadorian Highlands are being studied for their nutritional value and health benefits, specifically their antioxidant, antimicrobial, and antimutagenic properties.
- The study found that the aqueous extract from the microalgae has significant antioxidant capacity and moderate antibacterial activity, likely due to its high polyphenolic content.
- Results suggest the extract can reduce damage in human endothelial cells and exhibit antimutagenic effects, indicating its potential as a functional food rich in bioactive compounds.
