Carrageenans as a New Source of Drugs with Metal Binding Properties
Marine Drugs, 2010 Carrageenans are abundant and safe non-starch polysaccharides exerting their biological effects in living organisms. Apart from their known pro-inflammation properties and some pharmacological activity, carrageenans can also strongly bind and hold metal ...

Carrageenans from red seaweeds as promoters of growth and elicitors of defense response in plants [PDF]
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2016 Plants incessantly encounter abiotic and biotic stresses that limit their growth and productivity. However, conversely, plant growth can also be induced by treatments with various abiotic and biotic elicitors.

Carrageenans, sulphated polysaccharides of red seaweeds, differentially affect Arabidopsis thaliana resistance to Trichoplusia ni (cabbage looper). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Carrageenans are a collective family of linear, sulphated galactans found in a number of commercially important species of marine red alga. These polysaccharides are known to elicit defense responses in plant and animals and possess anti-viral properties.

Ice Crystal Growth in Sucrose Solutions Containing Kappa- and Iota-Carrageenans [PDF]
, 2020 Measurements of ice recrystallization inhibition (IRI) and thermal hysteresis (TH) activities of kappa (kappa)- and iota (iota)-carrageenans were carried out to examine whether they can be novel cryoprotectants or not. IRI measurements indicate that both

Ice recrystallization inhibition activity of chemically defined carrageenans [PDF]
Carrageenans are sulfated galactans from algae which are commonly used as thickeners, gelling agents, or stabilizers. It has been demonstrated that they also have significant ice recrystallization inhibition (IRI) activity.

Ice recrystallization inhibition of commercial kappa-, iota-, and lambda-carrageenans
, 2021 In this study, the structural composition of commercial kappa (kappa)-, iota (iota)-, lambda (lambda)-carrageenans was examined by using H-1 NMR spectroscopy, and the IRI activity of these different carrageenan samples was examined in sucrose solution ...
