Popis: This study explored the gut health potential of the green seaweed Ulva rigida (SW-U) and the red seaweed Gracilaria fisheri (SW-G), as well as polysaccharide-enriched extracts (PF-U and PF-G, respectively). The polysaccharide-enriched extracts were not digestible by small intestinal enzymes, but the morphology of samples was changed. After 24 h in vitro fermentation, seaweeds and polysaccharide-enriched extracts significantly increased (p
