Abstract:Gracilaria fisheri is a red seaweed that possesses several biological activities. The major important compounds comprising this seaweed are sulfated polysaccharides. However, limited data exists on the optimal extraction conditions for this seaweed using eco-friendly techniques like microwave-assisted extraction (MAE). This work aimed to optimize the MAE conditions for extracting sulfated polysaccharides from G. fisheri. Three factors influencing MAE were investigated: microwave time, solvent-to-solid ratio, a… Show more
