Abstract

Sulfated polysaccharides (fucoidan) were recovered from brown seaweed Fucus vesiculosus by microwave-assisted extraction (MAE). Different conditions of pressure (30–120psi), extraction time (1–31min), and alga/water ratio (1/25 to 5/25gml⁻¹) were evaluated during this process aiming to establish a condition to maximize the extraction results. The alga degradation (%), total sugar yield (%), and SO₃ content (%) were also determined to each experimental condition. All the studied variables presented significant (p<0.05) influence on fucoidan yield. MAE at 120psi, 1min, using 1g alga/25ml water was the best condition for the fucoidan recovery. l-Fucose was the main constituent of this polysaccharide, which also contained xylose and galactose. MAE under optimum reaction conditions was an effective method to recover fucoidan from F. vesiculosus. This method required short extraction times, and non corrosive solvents, resulting in reduced costs and being an environmentally friend technique.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
