| Seasonal Investigation of the Protein, Carbohydrate and Lipid Contens of Dominant Macroalgae in the Western Coast of the Black Sea
In this study, the ecological features and the total protein, carbohydrate and lipid amounts of the dominant macroalgae species of the western Black Sea coast have been investigated. Seasonal samplings have been carried out in five coastal stations (İğneada, Kıyıköy, Yalıköy, Karaburun, Kilyos) between November 2012 and August 2013. After the examination of the collected samples, 25 macroalgae species belonging to 9 families and 11 genera have been determined.
The highest protein content has been determined in the summer season sampling of Callithamnion corymbosum with a percentage of 47.09 % (İğneada), while the lowest has been determined in the winter season sampling of Corallina officinalis with a percentage of 0.10 % (Yalıköy). The highest proportion in carbohydrate content was observed in Ceramium rubrum(87.02 %), collected in summer at Kilyos, while the lowest has been found in Cystoseira barbata (2.60 %) which was sampled in the autumn season at Karaburun. The highest lipid ratio has been found in summer in Callithamnion corymbosum (22.04 %, İğneada), and the lowest ratio has been found in spring in Ulva compressa (0.75 %, Yalıköy).
The sea temperature values varied between 6.71 °C – 25.02 °C, the salinity varied among 11.95 – 16.54 %₀, the dissolved oxygen varied between 6.95 – 14.61 mg/L and the pH values varied between 4.67 – 7.28 during the study.
