Structures, properties and application of alginic acid: A review
Abstract
Alginic acid is a natural polysaccharide, which has been widely concerned and applied due to its excellent water solubility, film formation, biodegradability and biocompatibility. This paper briefly describes the source, properties, structure and application of sodium alginate by summarizing and analyzing the current literature. This paper reviews the application of sodium alginate in the fields of food industry, catalyst, health, water treatment, packaging, immobilized cells, and looks forward to its application prospects.

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.
