Effects of Dietary Marine Sulfated Polysaccharides Derived From Macroalgae on Intestinal Health of Nursery Pigs [PDF]
ABSTRACT Post‐weaning stress in pigs leads to intestinal inflammation and oxidative stress. Macroalgae has gained attention with anti‐inflammatory and anti‐oxidative properties to mitigate these negative impacts. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of sulfated polysaccharides extracted from marine macroalgae (Ulva spp.

Anti-inflammatory potential of ulvan
Green seaweeds are a widespread group of marine macroalgae that could be regarded as biorenewable source of valuable compounds, in particular sulfated polysaccharides like ulvans with interesting biological properties. Among them, anti-inflammatory activity represents an interesting target, since ulvans could potentially avoid side effects of ...

Revised domain structure of ulvan lyase and characterization of the first ulvan binding domain [PDF]
AbstractBiomass waste products from green algae have recently been given new life, as these polysaccharides have potential applications in industry, agriculture, and medicine. One such polysaccharide group called ulvans displays many different, potentially useful properties that arise from their structural versatility.

When a wound forms due to any injuries, it should be covered with a functional wound dressing for accelerating wound healing and reducing infection. In this study, crosslinked ulvan/chitosan complex films were prepared with or without the addition of glycerol and chlorophyll, and their wound healing properties were evaluated for potential application ...
