Fucoidan and Fucoxanthin Extraction from Sargassum

LMF (Hi-Q Oligo-Fucoidans^®) and HS-Fucox were derived from Sargassum hemiphyllum and prepared by Hi-Q Marine Biotech International Ltd. (New Taipei City, Taiwan). LMF was obtained by enzyme hydrolysis of original fucoidan. The characteristics of LMF-LJ were average molecular weight of 0.8 KDa (92.1%), fucose content 210.9±3.3 µmol/g, and sulfate content 38.9±0.4% (w/w). The extraction method followed the method mentioned before with technological modifications (24 (link)). HS-Fucox is a mixture of brown seaweed extract containing about 10% of fucoxanthin that is coated directly with polysaccharides of its own. It was dissolved in double-distilled H₂O (ddH₂O) and completely dissolved by stirring at room temperature for 30 min.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
