Abstract

Fucoidans, sulfated polysaccharides from the brown algae Fucus virsoides and Cystoseira barbata, show a wide range of biological activities (antioxidant, antibacterial, and antifungal) which depend on their chemical structure (sulfate group, fucose and uronic acid content, monosaccharide composition, molecular weight) and are related to the algal species, extraction technique and parameters, as well as pre-treatment used to remove interfering compounds. In addition to a higher yield compared to... More the conventional technique, the application of advanced extraction techniques (microwave-assisted extraction - MAE and pressurised liquid extraction - PLE) significantly reduced the extraction time.

Abstract (croatian)

Fukoidani, sulfatirani polisaharidi iz smeđih algi Fucus virsoides i Cystoseira barbata pokazuju široki raspon bioloških aktivnosti (antioksidacijsko, antibakterijsko i antifungalno djelovanje) koje ovise o njihovoj kemijskoj strukturi (udio sulfatnih grupa, fukoze, uronskih kiselina, sastav monosaharida, molekulska masa) i povezani su s vrstom alge, tehnikom i parametrima ekstrakcije te korištenim pred-tretmanom za uklanjanje interferirajućih spojeva. Uz veće prinose u odnosu na... More konvencionalnu tehniku, primjenom naprednih tehnika ekstrakcije (ekstrakcija potpomognuta mikrovalovima – MAE i ubrzana ekstrakcija otapalima pri povišenom tlaku – PLE) vrijeme ekstrakcije je značajno skraćeno.
