Anti-proliferation Potential and Content of Fucoidan Extracted From Sporophyll of New Zealand Undaria Pinnatifida
Mak, W; Wang, SK; Liu, T; Hamid, N; Lu, J; Li, Y; White, WL (Frontiers Media S. A., 2014)Undaria pinnatifida is a species of brown seaweed known to contain rich amounts of fucoidan, a sulfated polysaccharide known to possess various biological activities. We isolated crude fucoidan (F0) from the sporophylls ... -
Distinct Microbiota Composition and Fermentation Products Indicate Functional Compartmentalization in the Hindgut of a Marine Herbivorous Fish
Pardesi, B; Roberton, AM; Lee, KC; Angert, ER; Rosendale, DI; Boycheva, S; White, WL; Clements, KD (John Wiley & Sons, 2022)Many marine herbivorous fishes harbour diverse microbial communities in the hindgut that can play important roles in host health and nutrition. Kyphosus sydneyanus is a temperate marine herbivorous fish that feeds predominantly ... -
