Abstract
The solid phase byproduct obtained after conventional fucoidan extraction from the brown seaweed Fucus vesiculosus can be used as a source containing alginate. This study involves ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) of alginate from the byproduct using sodium bicarbonate. Response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to obtain the optimum conditions for alginate extraction. The ultrasound (US) treatments included 20 kHz of frequency, 20-91% of amplitude, and an extraction time of 6-34 min. The studied investigated the crude alginate yield (%), molecular weight, and alginate content (%) of the extracts. The optimum conditions for obtaining alginate with low molecular weight were found to be 69% US amplitude and sonication time of 30 min. The alginate extracts obtained were characterized using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Ultrasound-assisted extraction involving a short treatment lasting 6-34 min was found to be effective in extracting alginate from the byproduct compared to the conventional extraction of alginate using stirring at 415 rpm and 60 °C for 24 h. The US treatments did not adversely impact the alginate obtained, and the extracted alginates were found to have similar characteristics to the alginate obtained from conventional extraction and commercial sodium alginate.
期刊介绍:
Marine Drugs (ISSN 1660-3397) publishes reviews, regular research papers and short notes on the research, development and production of drugs from the sea. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical research in as much detail as possible, particularly synthetic procedures and characterization information for bioactive compounds. There is no restriction on the length of the experimental section.
