Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine one therapeutic approach for decreasing postprandial hyperglycemia is to retard absorption of glucose by inhibition of alpha-glucosidase. Bromophenols of Grateloupia elliptica have potential as natural nutraceuticals to prevent diabetes mellitus because of their high a-glucosidase inhibitory activity Rattus norvegicus

additional information compounds with alpha-glucosidase inhibitory activity are preliminarily screened and purified from ten different seaweeds (two green, four brown, and four red). The alpha-glucosidase inhibitory activity of the MeOH H2O (4:1, v/v) extract of Polyopes lancifolia at 5 mg/ml is highest at 52.2%, followed by Grateloupia elliptica (42.0%), Sargassum thunbergii (24.3%), and Grateloupia. lanceolata (22.0%) in decreasing order Rattus norvegicus
