24. The values for the protein content of Caulerpa spp. given in the literature vary strongly. The calculation of added BSA is based on the protein content given in J. R. M. Chisholm, M. Marchioretti, J. M. Jaubert, Mar. Ecol. Prog. Ser. 2000, 201, 189. The added lysine and cysteine were estimated based on the average amino acid content of algal proteins.
