Organic substances, such as: proteins, amino acids, lipids, fatty acids, saccharides reduction, chlorophylls and carotenoids, occur in the analysed algae in quantities much smaller in comparison with taxonomically similar macroalgae derived from marine environment having more favourable hydrochemical and climatic conditions.}, type={Article}, title={Chemism of some species of Antarctic macroalgae of the genera Adenocystis, Himantothallus, Leptosomia and Monostroma}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/111575/PDF-MASTER/1981_3-4_095-107.pdf}, keywords={Antarctic, Admiralty Bay, algae, Adenocystis, Himantothallus, Leptosomia, Monostroma, chemical composition, metabolism}, }
