In this study, we investigated the effect and mechanism of Undariopsis peterseniana, an edible brown alga, on hair growth. The treatment of vibrissa follicles with U. peterseniana extract ex vivo for 21 days significantly increased the hair-fiber lengths. The U. peterseniana extract also significantly accelerated anagen initiation in vivo. Moreover, we found that U. peterseniana extract was abl...

general toxicity, antiproliferative, antibacterial and antioxidant activities of caulerpa peltata j.v.lamouroux (caulerpaceae) collected from oman sea were investigated. dried, ground alga was soxhlet-extracted with hexane, dichloromethane and methanol successively. the methanol extract was subjected to vacuum liquid chromatography (vlc) fractionation on silica gel using a step gradient of diff...

The study was conducted to analyze the existence of bioactive phytochemicals extracts in green alga Scenedesmus dimorphus and their antimicrobial role. Various solvents such as methanol, ethanol, N-hegzane and diethylether were used for extraction. The extracts of of Scenedesmus dimorphus were tested against two Gram - positive bacteria (Bacillus subtilis and Micrococcus luteus), a Gram - negat...

The plant kingdom is rich in bioactive natural compounds, and extracts from various plants, as well red, green, brown macro micro algae, can be used. one of the largest filamentous green-alga genus. majority Cladophora species found all over world, both temperate tropical climates. They are secondary metabolites. dried algal mass was crushed into a fine powder acetone extract used for phytochem...

The Chrythophyta alga Nannochloropsis oculata was mixotrophically grown in artificial media enriched with acid-prehydrolyzed bagasse waste as a source of organic carbon. used growth medium composed F2 nutrients, sea salt (22.0 g L−1), and extract dissolved sterile tap water. All the determined parameters resulted their maximums, fed 25% 10% extract, while bagasse-extract-free engaged total chlo...

This study was conducted to evaluate the promoting effect of Ishige sinicola, an alga native to Jeju Island, Korea, on hair growth. When vibrissa follicles were cultured in the presence of I. sinicola extract for 21 days, I. sinicola extract increased hair-fiber length. After topical application of I. sinicola extract onto the back of C57BL/6 mice, anagen progression of the hair shaft was induc...
