This study investigated the biological activities of five benthic marine algae collected from Northeastern Region of Brazil. The tested activities included larvicidal activity against Aedes aegypti, molluscicidal activity against Biomphalaria glabrata, and toxicity against Artemia salina. Extracts of Ulva lactuca (Chlorophyta), Padina gymnospora, Sargassum vulgare (Phaeophyta), Hypnea musciform...

The results of our previous investigations on extracts of selected marine algae showed that Caulerpa peltata and Padina gymnospora had more promising antiproliferative and antioxidant activities than Gelidiella acerosa and Sargassum wightii. Based on these results, the more active chloroform extract of C. peltata and ethyl acetate extract of P. gymnospora were further analyzed for their constit...

The present study is aimed at identification of bioactive compounds and their pharmacological properties four macro-algae (Hydropuntia edulis, Halymenia venusta, Ulva lactuca Padina gymnospora) from the Hare Island, Tuticorin district Tamil Nadu, India. characterization ethanol extracted was done using GC-MS techniques. major secondary metabolites such as alkaloids, phenol, saponins, flavonoids...

Seaweed has a variety or biological activities, including antibacterial, antioxidant, antidiabetic, and anti-inflammatory ones. Mexico great macroalgae diversity, with nearly 1700 species; therefore, in this research two seaweeds from Mexico, Sargassum buxifolium Padina gymnospora, were investigated for their toxic potential; to understand phytochemical components both subjected various extract...

Seaweed constitutes one of the commercially important living renewable resources in marine ecosystem.Seaweeds have antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties. The aim study is to estimate phytochemicals antioxidant activity Padina gymnospora Ulva lactuca. properties phytochemical analysis lactuca collected from Gulf Mannar during low tide period were analyzed.The study's objec...

Beta-1,3-glucanases are enzymes that hydrolyze beta-1,3-glucans, and they essential for the metabolism of seaweed, plants fungi. These also participate in digestion herbivore fungivore animals. Because importance these enzymes in insects, beta-1,3-glucanase inhibitors may be used development new control strategies against agricultural pests disease vectors. Beta-1,3-glucanase inhibito...
