Fucoidans from Brown Alga Fucus evanescens: Structure and Biological Activity
Brown alga Fucus evanescens, widespread in the Far Eastern seas of Russia, is valuable source of sulfated polysaccharides—fucoidans with beneficial biological activities. The most homogenous fraction of fucoidan from F. evanescens was shown to be molecule containing linear main chain of alternating 2-sulfated 1,3and 1,4-linked α-L-fucose residues. Few sulfate groups were found in position 4 of ...
متن کاملBiosorption of Copper Ions by Marine Brown Alga Fucus vesiculosus
Copper is present in different types of industrial effluents, being responsible for environmental pollution. Biosorption of heavy metals can be an effective process for the removal and recovery of heavy metal ions from aqueous solutions. The biomass of marine algae has been reported to have high uptake capacities for a number of heavy metal ions. In this paper, the adsorption properties of a pr...
متن کاملSulfated polysaccharides fucoidans from brown algae
The immunotropic activity of structurally different fucoidans and their derivatives towards isolated immune blood cells, effectors of innate immune system, was studied. The most potent effect was observed for high molecular weight fucoidan CF from the alga Chordaria flagelliformis, whose backbone is built of (1→3)-linked units of α-L-fucopyranose, and branches included residues of α-D-glucuroni...
متن کاملIsolation of guanosine diphosphate uronic acids from a marine brown alga, Fucus gardneri Silva.
Guanosine diphosphate D-mannuronic acid and guanosine diphosphate L-guluronic acid were isolated from the marine brown alga, Fucus gardneri Silva. These uronic acid nucleotides, reported to occur for the first time in living cells, are considered to be the precursors for the biosynthesis of alginic acid which constitutes about 18% of this alga. A mixture of 3 moles of the two uronic acid nucleo...
متن کاملBactericidal activity of phlorotannins from the brown alga Ecklonia kurome.
The bactericidal activity of phlorotannins from brown algae against food-borne pathogenic bacteria (25 strains), methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) (nine strains) and Streptococcus pyogenes (one strain) was examined and compared with that of catechins. In addition, the effect of the oral administration of phlorotannins on mice was investigated. Phlorotannins, which are oligomers...
