Summary, etc. |
<span>In the present study, galactose dominated fucoidan was isolated through successive extraction method in alkaline, acid and neutral pH from the brown seaweed </span><em>Sargassum wightii </em><span>Greville ex J. Agardh collected along the Gulf of Mannar (Pamban, India) during March 2011. In this study, crude extracts obtained in chloroform: methanol (1:1 v/v) and 85 % ethanol (at 23°C and 70°C) showed antibacterial activity against</span><em> Xanthomonas axonopodis </em><span>pv</span><em>. citri </em><span>and <em>X. oryzae </em>pv.<em> oryzae</em> which cause canker in citrus and blight of paddy, respectively. Low (<span lang=""EN-GB"">< 3500 Da) and high molecular weight (<span lang=""EN-GB"">> 3500 Da) fucoidans separated through DEAE cellulose 52 column were recorded same proportion of monosugars constituents dominating D-galactose over L-fucose. Spectroscopic studies (IR & NMR) of high molecular weight fucoidan (Fraction, A1H) with high sulphate showed higher anticoagulation activity than low molecular weight fucoidan under <em>in vitro</em> APTT assay. This investigation concludes that successive extraction method yields galactofucoidan (3.62 %), alginate (11.2 %) and antibacterial substances (13.34 %) in the same biomass of brown seaweed <em>S. wightii</em>.</span></span></span><p> </p> |
