This study was conducted to determine the appro- priate density of sea grape (Caulerpa lentillifera) in polyculture with whiteleg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) in the same culture tank. Five treatments were randomly designed in triplicate tanks where shrimp was monocultured (without sea grape) as a control treatment and four polyculture treatments with different seaweed density levels (0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2 kg m−3) for 56 days. The results showed that polyculture of shrimp and sea grape significantly reduced the concentrations of total − − 3− ammonia nitrogen (TAN), nitrite (NO2 ), nitrate (NO3 ), and phosphate (PO4 ) in the rearing tanks and significantly improved (p < 0.05) the growth rate (6.67–6.76% day−1), survival (73.3–78.5%), Citation: Ly, K.V.; Murungu, D.K.; and production of shrimp (3.44–3.87 kg m−3) compared to monoculture (6.24% day−1, 54.8%, and Nguyen, D.P.; Nguyen, N.A.T.

This study investigated dried sea grapes containing 16.6% insoluble fibre commercially produced in Vietnam as an intervention. We hypothesised that insoluble fibre is the primary metabolite that will reverse diet-induced metabolic syndrome.

Vol. 11(3), 2019, 783-786 Technical Factors Affecting Seagrape (Caulerpa lentillifera) Production By Cultivation And Its Stability By Post-Harvest Treatment Nguyen Phuoc Minh1,*, Tran Thi Yen Nhi2, Lam Kim Tuyen3, Tran Hung Phi4, Doan Tan Khoa5, Tran Quoc Thuan6 1Faculty of Chemical Engineering and Food Technology, Nguyen Tat Thanh University, Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam 2NTT Hi-Tech Institute, Nguyen Tat Thanh University, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam 3Bac Lieu University, Bac Lieu Province, Vietnam 4An Giang University, An Giang Province, Vietnam 5Can Tho University, Can Tho City, Vietnam 6Tien Giang University, Tien Giang Province, Vietnam Abstract. Caulerpa lentillifera (green seagrape) is a grass-green in color, with a soft and succulent texture characterized by thallus consisting of long horizontal stolons with a few rhizoidal branches below, and many erect grapelike branches above. Seagrape is well-known for its rapid spoilage and short shelf life and the quality of seagrapes is often determined by its size with turgor pressure and bright green color. This means that picking methods and post harvest handling and storage conditions may also contribute to the shelf-life. Seagrape is one of species considered as key factor in aquaculture in Central coastal region of Vietnam. As a new cultivating species, there was not much studies mentioned to technical factors affecting to its biomass during cultivation. Moreover, owing to its short shelf life, it’s necessary to investigate an appropriate strategy to maintain its quality during storage. Therefore this study focused on parameters influencing to the cultivation (including the effect of salinity and nutrient level) and post-harvest (including the effect of washing, blanching and preserving of seagrape under different conditions).
