You can purchase this chapter alone using the payment button provided below.</p> <div id="faq"> <h2 style="color:#336633;">Introduction</h2> <div class="postt post-box boxshadow" id="post-6462"> <div class="entry_one"> <p>Algae meal could refer either to the algal biomass without extracting the oil, or to the deoiled oil cake. In this report, by algae meal or algae cake we refer to the deoiled extract of algae biomass, unless otherwise specified. </p> <p> The algal biomass comprises three main components – Carbohydrates, Proteins and Lipids. Once the lipids have been extracted the left-over cake is primarily composed of carbohydrates and proteins. </p> <p> Deoiled algae cake is a source of nutrients for humans and animals, because the cake of many algal species has high protein content, sometimes as high as 50 to 60% of dry matter. Algae are also a rich source of carotene, vitamin C and K, and B-vitamins. This chapter says how the algae left over, after extracting the oil can be very useful as well. </p> <div class="clear"></div> </div> <div class="clear"></div> </div> <div class="clear"></div> <h2 style="color:#336633;">List of Contents</h2> <ul style="margin:0;
