A Bioactive Substance Derived from Brown Seaweeds: Phlorotannins
Marine Drugs, 2022 Phlorotannins are a type of natural active substance extracted from brown algae, which belong to a type of important plant polyphenol. Phloroglucinol is the basic unit in its structure. Phlorotannins have a wide range of biological activities, such as antioxidant, antibacterial, antiviral, anti-tumor, anti-hypertensive, hypoglycemic, whitening, anti ...

Physiological functions of phlorotannins
Biological Communications, 2018 Phlorotannins are the most abundant group of metabolites specific for brown algae. These substances contribute both to the primary and secondary metabolism of the algal cells and have practical relevance as biologically active compounds. The list of their presumable physiological functions is still not exhaustive and includes wound healing, chelation ...

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 ...

Antifungal and Larvicidal Activities of Phlorotannins from Brown Seaweeds [PDF]
Marine Drugs, 2021 Phlorotannins are secondary metabolites produced by brown seaweeds with antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, and larvicidal activities. Phlorotannins’ structures are formed by dibenzodioxin, ether and phenyl, ether, or phenyl linkages. The polymerization of phlorotannins is used to classify and characterize.

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.
