Algae and algae products - Nitrogen content measurement and protein content calculation for micro- and microalgae

Abstract

This document describes the application of Kjeldahl and Dumas methods for the determination of nitrogen content in algae and their relevant products. The method was initially tested and evaluated on the algae species Nannochloropsis sp. and Palmaria palmata. The study validated this document for both algae species. This method can also be used for other algae species.
