Abstract: Antioxidant efficiency was studied in fresh edible algae: Cladophora, Microspara and Nostochopsis spp. from Nan River,
Nan province. The samples were collected from Pua and Tha-Wang-Pha district, studied antioxidant activity and compared the
antioxidant efficacy of the extracts from the three fresh edible algae with a standard solution, 3-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyanisole (BHA).
This study found that an extract of Nostochopsis spp. was the highest antioxidant activity to DPPH free radical between 32.1 and 87.5,
the highest amount of beta-carotene was 4.71-7.09 mg/g and the highest amount of phenol in fresh edible algae extracts from
Microspora was between 9.37 and 37.02 mg/g. The highest vitamin C in Microspora was between 110.41-138.53 mg/100 g.
