Carrageenan oligosaccharides - Carrageenan oligosaccharides

Carrageenan oligosaccharides

Name Carrageenan Oligosaccharides
Degradation carrageenan carrageenan oligosaccharides of degree of polymerization of 20 following a series of different degradation methods (acid degradation, enzymatic degradation, oxidative degradation).
Characteristic
Carrageenan oligosaccharides by carrageenan degradation terms of relative carrageenan carrageenan oligosaccharides smaller molecular weight, good solubility, stability and security have improved, at the same time because of the active groups on the molecular chain fully exposure, and its original activity be improved, and even a new activity.
Main function
Immunomodulatory and anti-tumor activity
The carrageenan oligosaccharides gelling and thickening effects can significantly increase the weight of immune organs (thymus), improve immune IL-2 (interleukin) and TNF-α (tumor necrosis factor) content, carrageenan The anti-tumor effect of the oligosaccharides may initially immune organs as a medium, and so no cell toxicity.
2 anti-radiation function
The carrageenan oligosaccharides can significantly reduce the radiation caused by reduced activity of NK cells in the spleen, hematopoietic function by inhibiting blood cells fewer sources symptoms, improve immune function, a significant protective effect of radiation damage.
The carrageenan oligosaccharides enhance the protection of the radiation damage immune organ and hematopoietic function recovery two to play the role of anti-radiation.

3. Antibacterial and antiviral activity
Kara oligosaccharides inhibit herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) adsorption, and showed significant dose-effect relationship, carrageenan oligosaccharides on cecal bacteria proliferation inhibition to promote the growth and development of small intestinal microvilli and improve the immune response and production performance of the experiments found that carrageenan oligosaccharides E. coli in the cecal contents of broilers inhibition.
4. Antioxidant activity
Kara oligosaccharides strong superoxide anion radical and hydroxyl radical activity, and reducing power. The carrageenan oligosaccharides also having antioxidant activity within the cell, it can protect cells from hydrogen peroxide damage.
5. Anticoagulant effect
Carrageenan having anticoagulant activity similar to heparin, of undegraded carrageenan and fiber protein to form insoluble complexes, and the degradation of carrageenan oligosaccharides soluble complexes with fibrin generation, and its toxicity than the non-degraded carrageenan significantly reduced.
