This book was released on 2013 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cancer is a disease that affects a person not just physically but also psychologically. The pain involved, the immense cost of treatment and side effects made the researchers to shift from allopathy to allelopathic medical cure for the treatment. Seaweeds are the marine macro-algae found to be rich in nutrients including antioxidants and various remarkable properties. Certain brown seaweeds are exhibiting excellent antioxidant activity and anticancer activity.Hence, in the present investigation three different seaweeds such as Kappaphycus alvarezii, Gracilaria verrucosa, Enteromorpha intestinalis were selected for the screening of certain biological activites. From the findings, it is highly recommended that like medicinal plants, seaweeds also possess strong antioxidant, anticancer and antibacterial properties. Hence this preliminary investigation from selected three seaweeds will help to do further studies on isolating bioactive compounds from seaweeds and detailed molecular level investigation of its antitumor potential may result in new drug discovery.

Download or read book Seaweed written by Vitor H. Pomin and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant extracts have been utilised for treatment in medical conditions since ancient times. The decision to use these natural agents was initially supported only by empirical knowledge and/or common-sense. More recently, a body of scientific literature has been generated which confirms a biological basis for these types of medical effects. This book provides a summary of trends in biochemical/pharmacological research concerning seaweeds; an in-depth discussion of nutritional values and pharmaceutical effects of seaweed components and ecological factors responsible for altering algal systems and the possible anabolisms of these bioactive samples are described. The broad-range medicinal use of some seaweed components is reported as well.
Book Synopsis Therapeutic and Nutritional Uses of Algae by : Leonel Pereira
Download or read book Therapeutic and Nutritional Uses of Algae written by Leonel Pereira and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 862 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Algae have been used since ancient times as food, fodder, fertilizer and as source of medicine. Nowadays seaweeds represent an unlimited source of the raw materials used in pharmaceutical, food industries, medicine and cosmetics. They are nutritionally valuable as fresh or dried vegetables, or as ingredients in a wide variety of prepared foods. In particular, seaweeds contain significant quantities of protein, lipids, minerals and vitamins. There is limited information about the role of algae and algal metabolites in medicine. Only a few taxa have been studied for their use in medicine. Many traditional cultures report curative powers from selected alga, in particular tropical and subtropical marine forms. This is especially true in the maritime areas of Asia, where the sea plays a significant role in daily activities. Nonetheless, at present, only a few genera and species of algae are involved in aspects of medicine and therapy. Beneficial uses of algae or algal products include those that may mimic specific manifestations of human diseases, production of antibiotic compounds, or improvement of human nutrition in obstetrics, dental research, thallassotherapy, and forensic medicine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part of the IFT Press series, this book reviews the myriad published information on bioactive components derived from marine foods, enabling researchers and product developers to select appropriate functional ingredients for new products. Chapters cover foods and food ingredients from both animal and plant marine sources, focusing on those which demonstrate biological properties and whose constituent compounds have been isolated and identified as potentially active. This book further addresses the biological activities of PUFAs (Polyunsaturated fatty acids), oils, phospholipids, proteins and peptides, fibres, carbohydrates, chitosans, vitamins and minerals, fucoxantin, polyphenols, phytosterols, taurine, amongst others. These components, found in a variety of marine-derived foods, have been demonstrated to have preventative properties with regard to hypertension, oxidative stress, inflammation, cardiovascular diseases, cancer and other human diseases. Extraction methods and analysis techniques are also addressed. Intended for food scientists, food technologists and food engineers in academia, industry and government, this book reviews the substantial quantity of current research in this fast-moving and commercially valuable sector of food and nutrition science.

Book Synopsis Seafood Processing By-Products by : Se-Kwon Kim
Download or read book Seafood Processing By-Products written by Se-Kwon Kim and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seafood processing industry produces a large amount of by-products that usually consist of bioactive materials such as proteins, enzymes, fatty acids, and biopolymers. These by-products are often underutilized or wasted, even though they have been shown to have biotechnological, nutritional, pharmaceutical, and biomedical applications. For example, by-products derived from crustaceans and algae have been successfully applied in place of collagen and gelatin in food, cosmetics, drug delivery, and tissue engineering. Divided into four parts and consisting of twenty-seven chapters, this book discusses seafood by-product development, isolation, and characterization, and demonstrates the importance of seafood by-products for the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and biomedical industries.

Book Synopsis Handbook of Anticancer Drugs from Marine Origin by : Se-Kwon Kim
Download or read book Handbook of Anticancer Drugs from Marine Origin written by Se-Kwon Kim and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-11-27 with total page 801 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely desk reference focuses on marine-derived bioactive substances which have biological, medical and industrial applications. The medicinal value of these marine natural products are assessed and discussed. Their function as a new and important resource in novel, anticancer drug discovery research is also presented in international contributions from several research groups. For example, the potential role of Spongistatin, Apratoxin A, Eribulin mesylate, phlorotannins, fucoidan, as anticancer agents is explained. The mechanism of action of bioactive compounds present in marine algae, bacteria, fungus, sponges, seaweeds and other marine animals and plants are illustrated via several mechanisms. In addition, this handbook lists various compounds that are active candidates in chemoprevention and their target actions. The handbook also places into context the demand for anticancer nutraceuticals and their use as potential anti-cancer pharmaceuticals and medicines. This study of advanced and future types of natural compounds from marine sources is written to facilitate the understanding of Biotechnology and its application to marine natural product drug discovery research.
