摘要：
The blue-green alga Aphanizomenon flos-aquae is shown to be a good source of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in rats. It was able to partially reverse the effects on digestive functions induced by a deficiency in polyunsaturated fatty acids. Aphanizomenon flos-aquae is also reported to significantly decrease total cholesterol and triacylglycerol levels.
