Abstract:Enzymatic hydrolysate of porphyran from Porphyra yezoensis was prepared by treatment with ß-agarase. The hydrolysate was fractioned into molecular sizes of <3, 3-30, and 30-300 kDa using an ultrafiltration membrane. The membrane fractions were further separated into neutral and anionic fractions using Dowex 1 8 ion exchange chromatography. After hydrolysis of porphyran with ß-agarase, 23.2% of the starting porphyran was recovered as a neutral fraction of low-molecular weight (<3 kDa), and 28.9% remained as an … Show more
