Marine algae have been historically an exceptionally rich source of pharmacologically active metabolites. Seaweed compound database is an open access database of secondary metabolites from seaweeds, providing text and structure search access of chemical structures. Presently it comprises compounds mostly from the Red algae Laurencia spp. with comprehensive information of geographical origin, extraction and biological activity. In addition to structure and property information, it links compound information across web in PubChem and ChemSpider.
