Katayama reported volatiles of some air-dried green marine algae at the early stages of gas chromatography (GC) development (3). In recent years, we have explored volatile compounds in fifty or more species of wet and undecomposed seaweeds in Japan green seaweeds Ulva pertusa. Monostroma nitidum, and Enteromorpha clathrata brown seaweeds Laminaria japonica and Undaria pinnatifida, and red seaweeds Porphyra tenera and Porphyra yezoensis by GC and GC-mass spectrometry (MS).

Since the Middle Ages, if not before, iodine-containing mineral waters have been used for the treatment of goiters. It was the characteristic smell, probably, which stimulated this apphcation, because other substances with a similar smell were used long before the discovery of iodine to reduce goiters, such as the sea grass Sargasso) and Laminaria japonica tresch in Chinese medicine.
