Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the chemical composition of the brown seaweed Cystoseira compressa collected from the Algerian coast, focusing on phytohormone, amino acid, and sugar -profiles. LC-MS/MS analysis of the amino acid profile revealed high levels of L-alanine (23.10 mg/100g extract), L-glutamic acid (19.75 mg/100g extract), and L-aspartic acid (14.53 mg/100g extract), HPLC analysis identified key phytohormones, with zeatin (243.96 mg/100g extract) being the most abundant. Significant quantities of essential sugars, including arabinose (4002 mg/100g extract) and sucrose (3667 mg/100g extract), were also detected. The findings of this research deepen our understanding of key metabolites in Cystoseira compressa that support plant growth and nutrition and suggest a significant potential for developing seaweed-based biostimulants, emphasising the value of using marine resources to improve agricultural practices.
期刊介绍：
The aim of Natural Product Research is to publish important contributions in the field of natural product chemistry. The journal covers all aspects of research in the chemistry and biochemistry of naturally occurring compounds.
The communications include coverage of work on natural substances of land and sea and of plants, microbes and animals. Discussions of structure elucidation, synthesis and experimental biosynthesis of natural products as well as developments of methods in these areas are welcomed in the journal. Finally, research papers in fields on the chemistry-biology boundary, eg. fermentation chemistry, plant tissue culture investigations etc., are accepted into the journal.
Natural Product Research issues will be subtitled either ""Part A - Synthesis and Structure"" or ""Part B - Bioactive Natural Products"". for details on this , see the forthcoming articles section.
All manuscript submissions are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single blind and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
