A Comparartive Analysis of the Anticoagulant Property of Chaetomorpha Antennina and Ceratophyllum Submersum

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Biotechnology and Biochemistry (IOSR-JBB - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 5

Abstract

Marine green algae remain largely unexploited among the three main divisions of macroalgae (i.e., Chlorophyta, Phaeophyta, and Rhodophyta). Interest in utilizing green seaweeds as natural resources has recently increased because of their many active ingredients, particularly those that may be used for medical purposes. Green seaweeds have reported to contain lipid fractions, proteins, peptides, polysaccharide, carotenoids, phenolic compounds, alkaloids, thallus, holdfast, mucilaginous, and whole plants. Among all these active ingredients, polysaccharides are the components most intensively investigated for medical purposes. Thus there are several studies on the anticoagulant properties of polysaccharides isolated from seaweeds. The present research is a Comparative Analysis of the Anticoagulant Property of Chaetomorpha antennina and Chaetomorpha submersum.
