Alternating High‐Fat and Polysaccharide Diets Modulates Gut Phage‐Bacterial Interplay

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals how alternating high‐fat and polysaccharide diets reshape the human gut virome and enhance phage‐bacteria interactions. Using large‐scale metagenomic meta‐analysis and a time‐resolved mouse model, the authors show that diets strongly modulate phage abundance, lifestyle, and gene exchange, offering new insights into nutrition‐guided ...

Antibacterial and Antioxidant Capacities and Attenuation of Lipid Accumulation in 3T3-L1 Adipocytes by Low-Molecular-Weight Fucoidans Prepared from Compressional-Puffing-Pretreated Sargassum Crassifolium

Marine Drugs, 2018
In this study, we extracted fucoidan from compressional-puffing-pretreated Sargassum crassifolium by hot water. The crude extract of fucoidan (SC) was degraded by various degradation reagents and four low-molecular-weight (LMW) fucoidans, namely SCO ...

Scalable Wheat Bran‐Algae Composites for Edible Electronics with Spray‐Coated Food‐Grade Conductive Inks

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
A fully edible wheat bran–algae substrate is fabricated through scalable mould‐compression and spray‐coating, enabling robust, food‐grade platforms for sustainable electronics. A chitosan barrier improves water resistance and ink compatibility, while activated‐carbon conductive films form uniform electrodes with Ohmic behaviour.

Carbon and nitrogen contents depends on macroalgal species, their tissue section, and development stage

Phycological Research, EarlyView.
SUMMARY Assessing the potential for macroalgae to function as a carbon sink (blue carbon) and nitrogen (N) assimilation is under intensive investigation. The content of elemental carbon (C) and N in macroalgae is the best indicator of their potential; however, with respect to the thallus, C and N content varies in space and time.

Growth and fucoidan sulfatase production in fucoidan-utilizing bacteria from sea sand.

Journal of the agricultural chemical society of Japan, 1984
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
