Carrageenan From (Rhodophyta, Solieriaceae): Metabolism, Structure, Production, and Application.

Carrageenan is a polysaccharide derived from red algae (seaweed) with enormous economic potential in a wide range of industries, including pharmaceuticals, food, cosmetics, printing, and textiles. Carrageenan is primarily produced through aquaculture-based seaweed farming, with and species accounting for more than 90% of global output. There are three major types of carrageenan found in red algae: kappa ()-, iota ()-, and lambda ()-carrageenan.

Dataset of 16S ribosomal DNA sequences of bacteria isolated from marine red algae .

The data provided in the article contains bacterial community profiles present on the surface of red algae () isolated directly after collection and after 30 days of cultivation in a closed circulation system. The explants of were cultivated in a laboratory setting under controlled growth conditions for 30 days in order to determine bacteria that could adapt to controlled culture conditions. Amplification and sequencing of bacterial 16S rDNA amplicon were performed on bacterial isolates associated with the seedlings.

Metagenomic data of bacterial community from different land uses at the river basin, Kelantan.

The data provided in the article includes the sequence of bacterial 16S rRNA gene from a high conservation value forest, logged forest, rubber plantation and oil palm plantation collected at Kelantan river basin. The logged forest area was previously notified as a flooding region. The total gDNA of bacterial community was amplified via polymerase chain reaction at V3-V4 regions using a pair of specific universal primer.
