A Recombinant Alginate Lyase Algt1 with Potential in Preparing Alginate Oligosaccharides at High-Concentration Substrate. [PDF]
Alginate lyase has been demonstrated as an efficient tool in the preparation of functional oligosaccharides (AOS) from alginate. The high viscosity resulting from the high concentration of alginate poses a limiting factor affecting enzymatic hydrolysis, particularly in the preparation of the fragments with low degrees of polymerization (DP).

A Novel Cold-Adapted and High-Alkaline Alginate Lyase with Potential for Alginate Oligosaccharides Preparation. [PDF]
Alginate oligosaccharides (AOs) prepared through enzymatic reaction by diverse alginate lyases under relatively controllable and moderate conditions possess versatile biological activities. But widely used commercial alginate lyases are still rather rare due to their poor properties (e.g., lower activity, worse thermostability, ion tolerance, etc.). In

Advances in Research on the Bioactivity of Alginate Oligosaccharides. [PDF]
Alginate is a natural polysaccharide present in various marine brown seaweeds. Alginate oligosaccharide (AOS) is a degradation product of alginate, which has received increasing attention due to its low molecular weight and promising biological activity. The wide-ranging biological activity of AOS is closely related to the diversity of their structures.

Synthesis of Alginate Oligosaccharide (AOS) Using Different Solvents [PDF]
Alginate oligosaccharide (AOS) is an oligosaccharide synthesized by depolymerizing alginate and has various industrial applications. This research determines the best solvent and the optimal concentration of the best solvent to produce AOS. Peroxides and hydrochloric acid can be used[L1] as solvents, but the residue might cause some danger if the AOS ...

Detection of Alginate Oligosaccharides from Mollusks [PDF]
We attempted in this study to detect alginate oligosaccharides (AO) from mollusks. The samples used were digestive organs taken from turban shells and abalones which commonly ate brown algae. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and negative-ion electrospray ionization (ESI) quadrupole time-of-flight (Q-TOF) mass spectrometry (MS) analyses ...

Expression and Characterization of an Alginate Lyase and Its Thermostable Mutant in Pichia pastoris
Alginate is one of the most abundant polysaccharides in algae. Alginate lyase degrades alginate through a β-elimination mechanism to produce alginate oligosaccharides with special bioactivities. Improving enzyme activity and thermal stability can promote

Alginate Oligosaccharides Affect Mechanical Properties and Antifungal Activity of Alginate Buccal Films with Posaconazole. [PDF]
Sodium alginate and its oligosaccharides through potential antifungal properties might improve the activity of antifungal drugs enhancing their efficacy and potentially reducing the frequency of application. Mucoadhesive buccal films are oral dosage forms designed for maintaining both local or systemic drug effects and seem to be a very promising ...
