Sargassum fusiforme and fulvellum are types of brown algae used for their nutritional value medicinal properties, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anticancer effects. Despite importance in various industries, many seaweed byproducts containing dietary fiber polysaccharides discarded landfills. These can be recycled repurposed different applications. In this study, we investigated the impact S. food processing (MbP-SFF) (MbP-SFV) on improving intestinal motility reducing inflammation...

This study explores the potential of producing bioethanol from seaweed biomass and reusing residues as antioxidant compounds. Various types seaweed, including red (Gelidium amansii, Gloiopeltis furcata, Pyropia tenera), brown (Saccharina japonica, Undaria pinnatifida, Ascophyllum nodosum), green species (Ulva intestinalis, Ulva prolifera, Codium fragile), were pretreated with dilute acid enzymes subsequently processed to produce Saccharomyces cerevisiae BY4741. Ethanol production followed...

Despite the many beneficial effects of phycocyanobilin (PCB) on human skin, its cosmetic applications have not been extensively investigated owing to light and temperature sensitivity. This is first report PCB extract (SP) derived from marine Arthrospira maxima having skin anti-wrinkling associated with antioxidant efficacy reduction intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. We obtained 46.63 ± 1.72 mg PCB/g dry weight A. in SP through an ethanol extraction process. extracts...

Recently, the extensive spread of some algae along coastlines has surged into unmanageable thick decomposition layers. This study aimed to demonstrate use Sargassum horneri as a biomass resource for ethanol production through continuous hydrolysis, enzymatic saccharification, and fermentation process. Sugars from S. were obtained using combination thermal acid hydrolysis saccharification. The optimal conditions involved 10% (w/v) slurry treated with 100 mM H2SO4 at 121 °C 60 min;...

The seaweeds with high carbohydrate ratio Gelidium amansii, Saccharina japonica and Enteromorpha intestinalis were used as red, brown, green seaweeds, respectively. Thermal acid hydrolysis, enzymatic saccharification fermentation carried out using those to produce ethanol. ethanol concentrations from brown seaweed 14.8 g/L, 11.6 g/L 9.9 After the production of ethanol, reused absorb heavy metal. maximum biosorption was Cu(II) (89.6%), Cr(III) (82.9%), Ni(II) (66.1%). had highest affinity 3...

Ulva pertusa Kjellman (U. pertusa) is a seaweed indigenous to the intertidal zone of Korean coastline. U. exhibits immune-enhancing and antitumor activities, its effects on intestinal health have gained attention. However, mechanisms underlying beneficial physiology remain elusive. Here, effect intake in ameliorating loperamide-induced constipation male mice was evaluated. Additionally, cellular levels proinflammatory cytokines, including nuclear factor-kB interleukin-1β, were assessed...

C-Phycocyanin (C-PC) is a photosynthetic pigment found in cyanobacteria, notably Arthrospira species. The extraction of phycocyanobilin (PCB), the chromophore C-PC, common approach to address instability C-PC under light, heat, and acidic conditions. Methanol typically used for PCB extraction. However, its use poses challenges industrial applications owing need solvent removal, extensive purification, safety validation. Therefore, this study proposes ethanol as an alternative methanol,...
