Features: This book explores the effective utilization of marine biological resources, systematically discussing the nutritional components, physiological active substances, and toxic substances of marine organisms, primarily focusing on fish, shellfish, and algae. It also elaborates on the processing of marine foods, the development of marine drugs, and the utilization of marine microorganisms. The book, excluding the introduction, is divided into three parts. Part 1 primarily discusses the nutritional components of marine fish, shellfish, and algae, the processing of traditional and modern marine foods, the comprehensive utilization of by-products from marine products, and new technologies in marine food processing. Part 2 provides a detailed explanation of marine bioactive substances, marine biological toxins, the screening of active compounds, the research and development of marine drugs, biotechnology in marine drug development, and the industrial cultivation of medicinal marine algae. Part 3 primarily introduces the fundamental knowledge of marine microorganisms, the microbial production of ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, the development of marine microbial polysaccharides, marine microbial antibiotics, and other active substances. This book incorporates mature experiences from related disciplines while also reflecting the latest research findings in the field, offering high practical value and academic reference. It is suitable for undergraduate and graduate students in universities majoring in aquaculture, food science, marine biotechnology, and marine drug development, as well as for science and production personnel in related industries.
