Özet

Objectives: Caulerpa racemosa var. cylindracea is a marine green alga which has been widely invading sublittoral ecosystem of the Mediterranean Sea since 1991. Inasmuch as there is no eradication method related to this species so far, use of the dried biomass of C. racemosa for immobilization of bovine serum albumin was studied in the present study.
