Brown alga, Turbinaria conoides was successively extracted with n-hexane, cyclohexane, methanol and ethanol:water (1:1). The extracts were evaluated for antibacterial and antifungal activities by disc diffusion method. Minimal inhibitory concentration was determined for active extracts by broth dilution method. The antiviral activity and cytotoxicity of the extracts were tested in human embryon...

The study investigated the Phaeophyceae during year 2019 at sixteen sampling sites representative for Cham islands. Specimens were collected by scuba diving, snorkelling and walking upper tidal zone in both dry rainy seasons. Twenty-five species of identified islands from four orders, families eleven genera. Sargassaceae family is most abundant composition, followed Dictyotaceae, Scytosiphonace...

Turbinaria conoides (J. Agardh) Kutzing ,(Phaeophyceae) a marine seaweed, and Marsilea quadrifolia Linn. (Marsileaceae) an aquatic fern, were tested for activity against Tobacco necrotic virus (TNV) and bacteria (antimicrobial). Local lesion method was adopted and half leaf comparisons were made in cotyledonary leaves of Cyamopsis tetragonoloba Taub.(Linn.). Extracts of the experimental plants ...

This work reported on the in vitro antibacterial activity of six selected marine algae (seaweeds) which have been selected and their extracts have been tested as an alternative to commonly used antibiotics. Extracts of six seaweed samples namely Codium decorticatum, Caulerpa scalpelliformis, Gracilaria crassa, Acanthophora spicifera, Sargassum wightii and Turbinaria conoides were collected from...

Abstrak Seaweed belongs to the group of natural antioxidants, these antioxidants are able counteract free radicals. Secondary metabolites that include alkaloids, flavonoids, phenolic compounds, steroids, and terpenoids carotenoids. This study aims identify test radical scavenging 2,2 diphenyl-1-pkrylhydrazyl (DPPH) from crude extract macroalgae symbiont pigment Turbinaria conoides originating c...
