“…However, up till now, report on brown algae lectin is still limited. Only few publications reported the screening of brown algae lectin (Anam, Praseptiangga, Fajarningsih, & Intaqta, 2016;Fajarningsih, Intaqta, Praaseptiangga, Anam, & Chasanah, 2018;Fajarningsih et al, 2015;Freitas et al, 1997;Hung et al, 2012) and to our knowledge only one publication reported the purification of brown algae lectin, an HFL lectin isolated from Hizikia fusiformis (Wu, Tong, Wu, Liu, & Li, 2016). According to Harrysson et al (2018), isolation of lectin or other protein from brown algae is difficult due to the high content of non-protein interfering compounds such as polyphenols and viscous polysaccharide.…”
