Kappaphycus alvarezii gelling, thickening, and stabilizing agents, especially in food products such as frozen desserts, chocolate milk, cottage cheese, whipped cream, instant products, yogurt, jellies, pet foods, and sauces. Aside from these functions, carrageenans are used in pharmaceutical formulations, cosmetics, and industrial applications such as mining. Carrageenan is extracted from this seaweed in two ways. In native extraction, the seaweed is made into an aqueous solution, and the residue is filtered, leaving nearly pure carrageenan. The alkaline-modified method is less expensive and easier. The seaweed is mixed in an alkali solution, leaving a mixture of carrageenan and cellulose that can be sold
Average variance extracted heterotrait-monotrait ratio (HTMT). Related coefficients are tau-equivalent reliability (formula_7; traditionally known as "Cronbach's formula_8") and congeneric reliability (formula_9; also known as composite reliability) which can be used to evaluate the reliability of tau-equivalent and congeneric measurement models, respectively. Average variance extracted In statistics (classical test theory), average variance extracted (AVE) is a measure of the amount of variance that is captured by a construct in relation to the amount of variance due to measurement error. The average variance extracted was first proposed by Fornell & Larcker (1981). The average variance extracted can be calculated as follows: Here, formula_2 is the
