Abstract

Alginate oligosaccharide,which is an oligomer of alginate,consisting of β-D-mannuronic acid and its C5-epimer α-L-guluronic acid linked via 1,4-glycosidic bonds,is a kind of functional oligosaccharide.Besides low molecular weight,strong solubility and high stability,alginate oligosaccharide has kinds of biological activities,such as antitumor,anti-oxidation,bacteriostasis and growth promotion,making it potential in pharmaceutical industry,functional foods development and green agriculture.
