Objective: The present study aims to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of crude sulphated polysaccharide from marine brown algae sargassum ilicifolium Methods: The present study involves the investigation of crude sulphated polysaccharide from marine brown algae sargassum ilicifolium for antiinflammatory activity by TPA [12OTechanoyl 13 – Myristate] induced inflammation in Polymorphonucle...

Objective: In day to day life, occupational stress is responsible for oxidative stress by altering sleep cycle. Scopolamine induction of amnesia correlates to stress-induced amnesia in youngsters. Hence, the present study was aimed to investigate the anti-amnesic effect of ethanolic extract and ethyl acetate fraction of Sargassum ilicifolium Turner (C. Agardh) against scopolamine. Methods: In t...

Sargassum has been well acknowledged for the potential natural product of its phlorotannins. Solid-liquid extraction (SLE) is the most common method used to extract them. However, this method has some drawbacks such as low yield and toxic. An alternative ecofriendly method has been proposed, i.e. enzyme-assisted extraction (EAE), proven to be more efficient. The aim is to compare the efficiency...

Marine algal community signifies a huge source of compound endowed with ingenious structure and potential biological activities. Cytotoxicity of plant or fungal material is considered as the presence of antitumor compounds. In this study, ethanol extracts of seaweeds Dictyota dichotoma var. velutricata, D. hauckiana, D. indica, Iyengaria stellata, Jolyna laminarioides, Melanothamnus afaqhusaini...
