Abstract :
Studies on the chemistry of algae began in 1900s and today continue to increase. In these studies algae have been investigated as a food source and were found to contain significant amounts of nutrients (Lee et al, 1977; John et al, 1980).In this study, Cystoseira barbata (Stackhouse) C. Agardh taxa taken from four different points of the Dardanelles for the changes due to seasonal chemical composition of the samples were examined before. In the samples depending on the seasons and the different stations reached different results for the best nutrients for raw materials.At the end of this study, different results were obtained of the annual distribution of C. barbata for different seasons and different locations. According to the results, the highest protein amount (%17,42±0,92) was obtained in spring, the minimum protein (%6,77±0,42) amount was obtained in spring but for different location.The highest lipid amount was determined in Havuzlar (%5,05±0,23)in winter, the minimum lipid amount (%0,79±0,54) was determined in Havuzlar in spring. The minimum ash amount (%15,43±0,77) was obtained in Gelibolu in summer and the highest amount of ash (%38,3±0,52) was determined in Havuzlar in autumn.
