Preparation of different molecular weight polysaccharides from Porphyridium cruentum and their antioxidant activities

Sun, Liqin, Wang, Changhai, Shi, Quanjian, Ma, Cuihua·2009·International Journal of Biological Macromolecules

Abstract

Hermetical microwave was used to degrade Porphyridium cruentum polysaccharides from 2918 to 256.2, 60.66 and 6.55kDa. The antioxidant properties of different molecular weight polysaccharides were evaluated by determining the scavenging ability of free radicals, inhibitory effects on lipid peroxidation in liver homogenates and hemolysis of mouse erythrocytes. Analysis of physicochemical properties confirmed that microwave degradation might not markedly change the chemical components of the polysaccharides. High-molecular-weight polysaccharides from P. cruentum had no obvious antioxidant activity, but low-molecular-weight fragments after degradation exerted an inhibitory effect on oxidative damage. The 6.55-kDa fragment had stronger antioxidant activity than the 60.66 and 256-kDa fragments.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The main non-enzymatic hydrolytic techniques used at an industrial level are ultrasound, microwaves, free radicals, or diluted acids.

    “the main non-enzymatic hydrolytic techniques used at an industrial level are ultrasound (in the case of carrageenans, agarose and xylan), microwaves (for hydrolysis of exopolysaccharides obtained from Porphyridium cruentum), use of free radicals (for fucoidan and algae galactan), or the application of diluted acids (for example, phosphoric acid) [124,125,126,127,128,129,130].”
  • Antioxidant activity was reported for polysaccharides from Porphiridium cruentum.

    “Antioxidant activity was also reported for polysaccharides from Porphiridium cruentum [121].”

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.
