Inhibition of COX-2 activity (expressed in percentage, %) demonstrated by the lipid extracts of Ulva rigida, Codium tomentosum, Palmaria palmata, Porphyra dioica and Fucus vesiculosus at a concentration of 500 µg/mL. Values are averages of three assays (n = 3) ± standard deviation. In the case of Gracilaria gracilis, no inhibition was obtained. Different letters indicate significant differences between species (p < 0.05, ANOVA followed by Tukey’s HSD post hoc analysis).
