Three fish burgers (100 g) were prepared for each formulation (control and with different concentrations of algae powder).
Control versus(1% J. adhaerens, 1% C. compressa, and 1% combination burger): P < 0.001.
1% C. compressa burger versus 1% J. adhaerens and 1% combination burger: P < 0.05.
the scavenging activity of DPPH free radicals (%) and the reducing power (absorbance at 700 nm) were determined at a sample concentration of 10 mg/mL.
