The potential anticoagulant property of Caulerpa lentillifera crude extract
BACKGROUND Anticoagulants have been used in the treatment of several circulatory diseases and thrombotic disorders, and in the blood sampling for hematologic analysis. Sulfated polysaccharides (SP), which have anticoagulant properties, are found in most seaweeds, including Caulerpa spp. OBJECTIVE The study generally aimed to evaluate the potential anticoagulant property of Caulerpa lentillife...
متن کاملNutritional Evaluation of Tropical Green Seaweeds Caulerpa lentillifera and Ulva reticulata
Studies were conducted to evaluate nutritional qualities of two edible green seaweeds, Caulerpa lentillifera and Ulva reticulata, with a view to their utilization in human nutrition. The proximate composition, mineral and vitamin contents, free fatty acid, and amino acid profiles were investigated. Protein and ash contents were the two most abundant components in these seaweeds. Caulerpa lentil...
متن کاملImmunostimulatory activity of polysaccharides isolated from Caulerpa lentillifera on macrophage cells.
Polysaccharides were extracted from Caulerpa lentillifera by treating with water and then purified by size-exclusion chromatography. The purified polysaccharides, termed SP1, were found to be sulfated xylogalactans with a molecular mass of more than 100 kDa. Adding SP1 to murine macrophage RAW 264.7 cells increased the production of nitric oxide (NO) in a dose-dependent manner. NO was found by ...
متن کاملDetermination of Proximate and Vitamin Compositions of Blighia unijugata Leaves
The proximate and vitamin compositions of Blighia unijugata leaves were investigated using spectrophotometric methods. The results showed high carbohydrate (41.31%) and protein (24.13%) contents and relatively low percentage levels of fiber (12.61%), moisture (12.13%), ash (6.02%) and fat (3.80%). The results also recorded high concentrations of retinol (24.15±0.05 mg/100g) and ascorbic acid (1...
متن کاملInfluence of particle size and salinity on adsorption of basic dyes by agricultural waste: dried seagrape (Caulerpa lentillifera).
Green macroalga Caulerpa lentillifera was found to have reasonable adsorption capacity for basic dyes, Astrazon Blue FGRL (AB), Astrazon Red GTLN (AR), and Astrazon Golden Yellow GL-E (AY). The initial dye concentration was in the range of 100-1,800 mg/L. The dried algal sorbent was ground and sieved into 3 sizes: S (0.1-0.84 mm), M (0.84-2.0 mm), and L sizes (larger than 2.0 mm). For all condi...
