Rapid and cost-efficient microplate assay for the accurate quantification of total phenolics in seaweeds

Brown seaweeds (Phaeophyceae) are a rich source of polyphenols (up to 20% dry weight) with a structure based on phloroglucinol (1,3,5-trihydroxybenzene). To-date the determination of total phenolics content (TPC) involves a redox reaction with the Folin-Ciocalteu (FC) reagent. However, side reaction...
