This project aims to assess the safety of seaweed for human consumption by investigating the toxicity of arsenic species, particularly arsenolipids. It will establish facilities for measuring these compounds and analyze seaweed from various locations to inform risk assessments.
SilhouetteOfSeaweed will contribute to consumer’s safety by overcoming barriers in estimating toxicity of arsenic species in seaweed.
The ocean covers 71% of the planet and for future sustainability the need for looking at using the ocean for food, e.g. seaweed, is increasing.
Seaweed contains high amounts of arsenic, including arsenolipids (AsLp).
Recently the first data on AsLp toxicity have elucidated that they are as toxic as the most toxic arsenic, the inorganic arsenic (iAs).
