Analysis by Vibrational Spectroscopy of Seaweed Polysaccharides with Potential Use in Food, Pharmaceutical, and Cosmetic Industries

[摘要] Polysaccharides present in several seaweeds (Kappaphycus alvarezii,Calliblepharis jubata, andChondrus crispus—Gigartinales, Rhodophyta;Gelidium corneumandPterocladiella capillacea—Gelidiales, Rhodophyta;Laurencia obtusa—Ceramiales, Rhodophyta;Himanthalia elongata,Undaria pinnatifida,Saccorhiza polyschides,Sargassum vulgare, andPadina pavonica—Phaeophyceae, Ochrophyta) are analyzed by spectroscopic techniques. The nature of the polysaccharides (with extraction and without any type of extraction) present in these seaweeds was determined with FTIR-ATR and FT-Raman analysis of extracted phycocolloids and ground dry seaweed.
