Example 1 Centrifuged fraction 1 of fiJ marine chlorella by high concentration culture
It is concentrated in a machine and spray-dried to produce a bright green marine chlorella powder with an i:1 ratio. In order to compare the health of the 11 animals, we used 1-lii school male Laso 1- and obtained the results shown in Table 1 (7 animals in each group).

Table 1'' Note: ** indicates a significant difference at a risk rate of 5% °As shown above, the growing season U-RETO uses only casein or freshwater chlorella as the protein source, using chlorella rice from the local market as a protein source. It showed significantly superior growth compared to the experimental plot, and the platelet aggregation ability of its blood was significantly lower, suggesting that it was less likely to form blood clots.Example 2 Marine products obtained according to Example 1 Table 2 shows the results of a sensory test conducted by compressing chlorella powder into tablets and comparing them with freshwater chlorella tablets. (7 tablets of 0.2 g each) Table 2: Significant differences in preference based on paired comparison method As a result of the test, marine chlorella tablets were significantly preferred in both appearance and flavor.

Example 3 Marine Chlorella Powder 7, Seaweed Powder 2, Shaped Calciuio
A mixture consisting of ', 5, and 0.5 seasoning spices was made into granular furikake with a diameter of about 2 dragons using a granulator.
