Abstract:Currently, there is growing interest in exploring natural bioactive compounds with anti-inflammatory potential to overcome the side effects associated with the well-known synthetic chemicals. Algae are a rich source of bioactive molecules with numerous applications in medicine. Herein, the anti-inflammatory effect of Ulva intestinalis alone or selenium nanoparticles loaded with U. intestinalis (UISeNPs), after being fully characterized analytically, was investigated by a carrageenan-induced inflammation model.… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
