Abstract

Fucoidan, has gained a lot of interest from researchers and pharmaceuticals owing to its anti-oxidant, anti-coagulant, anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor and health promoting properties. However, extraction of fucoidan from seaweeds, involves use of harsh chemicals, thereby creating a need for alternativ...
