Molecular fishing: marine oligosaccharides [PDF]

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2014
It is difficult to overvalue the importance of polysaccharides for the great number of applicative fields in which they appeared. Oligosaccharides are relatively short compounds that are prepared from the longer polysaccharides or could also be found as ...

Short Bioactive Marine Oligosaccharides: Diving into Recent Literature

Current Biotechnology, 2015
BACKGROUND: The big wave of the successes in glycobiology is also embracing the marine domain. The major inherent structural complexity of carbohydrate molecules greater than that of proteins and nucleic acids, adds challenges for the control of pharmaceutical preparations based on such complex biomolecules.

Natural Polymers with Antioxidant Properties: Poly-/oligosaccharides of Marine Origin

, 2012
In recent decades, poly- and oligosaccharides derived from marine sources including algae, invertebrates and some bacteria display significant antioxidant activities. Development of therapeutic products based on such bioactive poly-/oligosaccharides has been generating considerable interest.

The potential of marine oligosaccharides in pharmacy [PDF]

Bioactive Carbohydrates and Dietary Fibre, 2019
Abstract Complex polysaccharides are widespread within the animal kingdom. At the molecular level, however, the importance of such components have largely been considered inferior compared to nucleic acids and proteins. This in spite of the fact that carbohydrates are well known to govern important biological processes like cell-cell and cell-ECM ...

Single-Step Production of Mannitol From Yacon Fructo-Oligosaccharides Using Fructophilic Lactic Acid Bacteria. [PDF]

Microbiologyopen
Mannitol is a sweetener with a low glycaemic index and calorific value that can be produced efficiently by bacterial transformation. We demonstrate its production by Leuconostoc mesenteroides and Fructobacillus fructophilus from a novel substrate, fructo‐oligosaccharides from the tuber yacon in a single‐step process that is amenable to scale‐up ...

Alginate Oligosaccharides in Lipid Metabolism: A Dual-Action Marine Prebiotic. [PDF]

Nutrients
Alginate oligosaccharides (AOS) are degradation products of brown seaweed alginate, known as dietary bioactive components and used as health-beneficial nutrients. Unlike conventional prebiotics such as fructo-oligosaccharides, galacto-oligosaccharides, and xylo-oligosaccharides, AOS carry carboxyl groups and are negatively charged at physiological pH ...

Production of Ulvan Oligosaccharides with Antioxidant and Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme-Inhibitory Activities by Microbial Enzymatic Hydrolysis

Fermentation, 2021
Seaweed oligosaccharides have attracted attention in food, agricultural, and medical applications recently. Compared to red and brown seaweeds, fewer studies have focused on the biological activity of green seaweed’s oligosaccharides. This study aimed to
