echinoderms are independent and quite special branch of world animals. sea cucumbers are among the strangest members of echinoderm class regarding their structure and physiology. these fauna have been tested with regard to anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-coagulants, anti-virus, cytotoxic, hemolytic and anti-hiv features. in this study, the antibacterial activity of holothuria leucospilota sea...

Marine microorganisms are important sources for novel natural products. Hence, the aim of this study was introducing the marine microorganisms with capability to produce antioxidant and cytotoxic metabolites. For this purpose, ten live sea cucumbers (Holothuria leucospilota) were collected from Larak Island. Then, their intestine contents were serially diluted and treated by heating (55 °c). 10...

Compounds obtained from marine organisms have been isolated due to their anti-bacterial and antifungal activities. In this study, the antifungal activity of aqueous-methanol, methanol, chloroform and n-hexane extracts of body wall, guts and white strings of sea cucumber (Holothuria leucospilota) collected from Chabahar Bay in 100 to 2000 μg/ml concentrations is discussed. The antifunga...

in this study, the extract of sea cucumber species, holothuria leucospilota was extracted and its effect studied on the chemical quality rainbow trout fillets packed in vacuum. sea cucumber was extracted using methanol and various concentrations (0, 5/0, 1 and 2%) were prepared. salmon fillets after soaking in the extracts were vacuum packed, chemical tests every 4 days included total volatile ...
