TL;DR: The present paper will provide an update on the structural chemistry of the major sulfated polysaccharides synthesized by seaweeds including the galactans, ulvans, and fucans and the recent findings on the anticoagulant/antithrombotic, antiviral, immuno-inflammatory, antilipidemic and antioxidant activities of sulfated Polysaccharide and their potential for therapeutic application.

TL;DR: The identification, by various MS and chromatographic techniques, of an unexpected series of exclusively odd‐numbered oligosaccharide fragments from its hydrolytic products, which were derived from two‐step cleavages of the glycosidic bonds on either sides of the 3,6‐anhydrogalactose residues.

TL;DR: Results showed that a fucoidan KW derived from brown algae Kjellmaniella crassifolia effectively blocked IAV infection in vitro with low toxicity and has the potential to be developed into a novel nasal drop or spray for prevention and treatment of influenza in the future.

TL;DR: In this article, the red alga Furcellaria lumbricalis from the coast of the Prince Edward Island (PEI) in Atlantic Canada, was extracted with hot water and fractionated with 0.125 M KCl to obtain a carrageenan-like polysaccharide.

TL;DR: A comprehensive characterization of the triacylglycerols and astaxanthin esters that predominate in the shrimp oil is presented by using HPLC-HRMS and MS/MS, as well as 13C-NMR, which offers direct characterization of fatty acid molecules in their intact forms.
