(A) (a) The percentage of ATBC and 9CBC of total BC; (b) Stahl et al. [148]; (c) Stahl et al. [149]; with (d) approx. calculations of 9CBC concentrations based on the displayed figures; (e) Clinton et al. [150]; (f) Johnson et al. [151]; UDL - under detection limit. (B) Individual dry weight listed as (g) 12.6% (n), (h) 18.3% (n), (i) 6.2% (n); (j) 11.3% (n), (k) 4.8% (n), (l) not calculated because the wet algae and thereby the weight of these algae are not of nutritional relevance. (m) total BC = ATBC + 9CBC; (n) Ben-Amotz and Fishler [152], (o) Khoo et al. [153], (p) Berni et al. [154], (q) Murador et al. [155]
