Growth and fucoidan sulfatase production in fucoidan-utilizing bacteria from sea sand.
Bacteria utilizing fucoidan as the sole carbon source were isolated from sea sand. Sixty-six isolates were obtained from 374 sea sand samples. Five grew comparatively well in a medium of fucoidan-artificial sea water. These bacteria utilized various fucoidan substrates. The production of fucoidan sulfatase was estimated by the increase in liberation of
