Seaweeds and other types of seaplant have been
utilised by the human race for millennia but new uses are
evolving and being developed all the time. SuriaLink will be
developing this section of our handbook with development as a
key focus.
Zemke-White and Ohno
(1999) have summarized uses by genus. Click here to see

In general the main areas for use and application of seaweeds, seavegetable
and seaplant products falls into nine segments as follows:

SuriaLink will be continually
building this section of the Seaplant Handbook. To begin with we have placed
some material on the site under the "human food" or the "well being"
subsections.
