abstract = "The aim of the present study was to reveal the potential biological activities of the dichlorometane: methanol (1:1) dry extract (DME) and the nutritional value of selected seaweeds: Cymodocea nodosa, Halimeda tuna, Cystoseira barbata and Codium bursa, collected from the Adriatic coast, Montenegro. We assessed the chemical composition and several biological activities such as: anti-a-glucosidase, antitumour, antimicrobial and antioxidative activity. H. tuna had the best cytotoxic activity against human colon carcinoma cell line, LS174 (IC50 = 17.92 +/- 1.54 mu g/mL). C. nodosa demonstrated strong cytotoxicity against human adenocarcinoma cell line, HeLa (IC50 = 13.28 +/- 0.39 mu g/mL) and human chronic myelogenous leukaemia cell line, K562 (IC50 = 19.64 +/- 1.55 mu g/mL). C. barbata had the best anti a-glucosidase (IC50 = 9.98 +/- 3.34 mu g/mL) and antimicrobial activity (minimal inhibitory concentration of 100 mu g/mL) for Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis. C. bursa showed the highest nutritional value (490.4 kcal).",
