Fucophlorethol C, a phlorotannin as a lipoxygenase inhibitor [PDF]
Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2015 Abstract Fucophlorethol C, a phlorotannin, was isolated from the brown alga Colpomenia bullosa (Scyto-siphonaceae) as a novel lipoxygenase (LOX) inhibitor. It was obtained as a free form from natural origin for the first time. The compound inhibited a soybean LOX to the same extent as the known inhibitor nordihydroguaiaretic acid.

Phlorotannin Composition of
Phytochemical Analysis, 2017 AbstractIntroductionPhlorotannins are complex mixtures of phloroglucinol oligomers connected via C‐C (fucols) or C‐O‐C (phlorethols) linkages. Their uniformity in subunits and large molecular weight hamper their structural analysis. Despite its commercial relevance for alginate extraction, phlorotannins in Laminaria digitata have not been studied ...

Effects of Phlorotannins on Organisms: Focus on the Safety, Toxicity, and Availability of Phlorotannins [PDF]
Foods, 2021 Phlorotannins are polyphenolic compounds produced via polymerization of phloroglucinol, and these compounds have varying molecular weights (up to 650 kDa). Brown seaweeds are rich in phlorotannins compounds possessing various biological activities, including algicidal, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, and anticancer activities. Many review

Hybridisation as an Ecological Process: Admixed Individuals Contribute Substantially to Canopy Biomass in an Intertidal Macroalgal Hybrid Zone. [PDF]
Ecol EvolOn sheltered shores of the Swedish west coast, the canopy‐forming seaweeds Fucus spiralis and F. vesiculosus meet across an intertidal gradient only tens of centimetres wide. Genome‐wide data resolve two parental ancestry groups separated by a sharply bounded zone of admixed individuals whose position on the shore tracks depth.
