Abstract
This study focused on extracting heparin-like polysaccharide (HLP) from the gladius of Doryteuthis sibogae and evaluating its anticoagulant and antioxidant potential. The structural characterization of extract was studied using FTIR, FESEM and XRD and the presence of HLP was confirmed. The anticoagulant properties of HLP were studied using the APTT and PT kits. In addition, antioxidant evaluation was performed using DPHH, Hydroxyl radical scavenging assay, and the chelating ability of ferrous ions. The HLP showed anticoagulant efficacy of 6.72 IU/mg and 1.69 IU/mg for APTT and PT assay respectively. HLP extracted from D. sibogae demonstrated antioxidant properties comparable to those of the control substances used in various tests. The increase in the concentration of the polysaccharide extract was directly proportional to the antioxidant properties elicited by the HLP of D. sibogae. Finally, HLP extracted from D. sibogae showed significant anticoagulant and free radical-scavenging activities.
