  • Title: In vitro antioxidant activities of sulfated polysaccharide fractions extracted from Corallina officinalis.
    Author: Yang Y, Liu D, Wu J, Chen Y, Wang S.
    Journal: Int J Biol Macromol; 2011 Dec 01; 49(5):1031-7. PubMed ID: 21896282.
    Abstract:
    Sulfated polysaccharides (F1, F2) from seaweed Corallina officinalis were isolated through anion-exchange column chromatography. Their chemical characteristics were determined by GC, HPLC, FT-IR and UV spectra. F1 and F2 contained only two monosaccharides, namely galactose and xylose. The antioxidant activities of F1, F2 and the de-sulfated polysaccharides (DF-1, DF-2) in vitro were investigated, including hydroxyl radicals scavenging effect, superoxide radical scavenging capacity, DPPH radical activity and reducing power. As expected, antioxidant assay showed that the two sulfated polysaccharide fractions (F1, F2) possessed considerable antioxidant properties and had more excellent abilities than de-sulfated polysaccharides (DF-1, DF-2).
