Seasonal changes effect on yield and quality of carrageenan from the Syrian marine alga Hypnea musciformis were studied during 1 year. The carrageenan yield varied from 31 to 46%. The maximum yield was recorded between April and September, while low carrageenant content was recorded in December. The gel strength of carrageenan was maximum in September (260 g/cm²) and minimum in March (90 g/cm²). The viscosity ranged from 22 to 44cP with a peak recorded in September. Seasonal variations were not observed in the gelling (42-50 C°) and melting (60-70 C°) temperatures of carrageenan. The results indicate that Hypnea musciformis can be considered a good sources for production of commercial carrageenan in future.

The research aims to study the effect of Seasonal variations in yields and qualities of agar seaweed Pterocladia capillacea. The results show that there is a clear impact of the Seasonal variations in the yield, physical and chemical properties of the extract agar. Agar yields ranging from 10.1 to 33.8% and has been the highest in the month of June and below 33.8% in December, 10.1% of the years 2014 to 2015. Reached the maximum value of the strength of the gel in June, 789 g/cm2 and the minimum value of 183 g/cm2 through December and the average rate of sulfates 3.42%. The viscosity values ranged between 35.7 and 81.4 cP, and recorded the highest value in July 81.4 cP. Melting temperature ranged 78- 86.5 °C and Gelling temperature from 35 to 25 °C.
The research aims to study is to study the effect of the pH factor of Pterocladia capillacea on agar yield and some of its physical properties using different degrees of pH (4- 5.5 - 5.5 - 6.5 - 7.5 - 7.5 - 8). The maximum yield of agar was 37.45% at pH = 5 and 562g / cm2 and viscosity 10.7cP and 15.45% at pH = 8 with the highest strength of 768 g /cm2 and viscosity of cP 156. The degree of melting and melting of agar Between (22- 33.5 οC) and (75- 86 οC), respectively.
The aim of this research is to determine the effect of seasonal changes on the yield of morphologically intact oocytes for in vitro maturation and consequently for fertilization and embryo production. Determining the impact of seasonal changes hel ps us to increase the intact oocytes yield, and better use of in vitro culturing technique of cow oocytes. This leads to: benefit from animals of genetic superiority, maintenance the biodiversity of animal genetic resources by using deep-freezing technique of pre/post in vitro fertilized oocytes taken from cow ovary of animals after slaughter. The results of this research paper show that, the intact oocytes yield for in vitro culturing differs accordingly with year seasons. The lowest percentage of intact cells 29.5 were recorded in the period between May and September, whereas the highest percentage of intact cells 42.6% were recorded in the period between October and March. There was significant difference (P<0.001) between the two periods for intact cells.
The purpose of this study is to highlight on the ability of the alga Ulva fasciata to accumulate some organic pollutants (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons :PAHS, polychlorinated biphenyls: PCBs). The samples were collected from three sites at the Syr ian coast during 2011. The result of this study revealed the ability of alga to accumulate significantly the PAHs and their concentrations ranged from 30.52 to 72.7 ng/g dw, While the PCBs concentrations were less, it ranged between 6.00 and 24.01 ng/g dw. The highest concentration of PAHs was observed at the Dirasat site, while the highest concentration of the PCBs found at the Cornish of Jablah. The logarithm bioconcentration factors (log BCF) of the aromatic compounds with three aromatic rings were close to the logarithm octanol/water partitioning coefficients (log Kow ), unlike the compounds with higher rings, where log BCF were obviously less than corresponding log Kow. The log BCF values of PCBs increased with increasing chlorine atoms (2 - 6 atoms) , while no increasing was observed for components that contain 7 to 8 chlorine atoms
