A simple strategy for the separation and purification of water-soluble polysaccharides from the fresh Spirulina platensis
نویسندگان
چکیده
A novel and industrially applicable strategy for separating and purifying the water-soluble polysaccharides from the fresh Spirulina platensis is introduced in this study. After hot water extraction, using chitosan flocculation treatment, 86.0% of the particles and 85.9% of the pigments in the crude extract were removed. The purity of polysaccharides could be increased to 94.6% and 96.1% by applying the macroporous resin ADS-7 to remove the impurities in the mode of static adsorption and in a dynamic mode of operation, respectively. The polysaccharides obtained were composed of three major components having molecular weights of 1400, 420 and 2 kDa. ARTICLE HISTORY Received 18 July 2016 Accepted 30 September 2016

Extraction, partial purification, and antibacterial activity of phycocyanin from Spirulina isolated from fresh water body against various human pathogens
The phycobilin pigments are intensively fluorescence and water soluble. They are categorized into three types: pigments containing high energies (phycoerythrins), intermediate energies (phycocyanins), and low energies (allophycocyanins). Among them, crude-phycocyanin (c-pc) has been considered to be the most preferred one. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the antibacterial activity ...

Background: Enterocin-P of Enterococcus faecium P13 (EntP) is of great interest as a food preservative and medicine due to its non-toxicity and broad antimicrobial spectrum in various pH, as well as its excellent thermal stability. However, recombinant production of EntP is still in laboratory because of low productivity and complex purification process. Objectives: In this study, we aimed to ...
