The metabolism of GFS has been shown to fit a two component model following its administration by intravenous injection, and its pharmacokinetic parameters were determined to be as follows： half-time of distribution phase （t1/2α）=11.2±2.93 min, half-time of elimination phase （tl/2α）=98.20±25.78 min, maximum concentration （Cmax）=110.53 gg/mL and peak time （Tmax）=5 min. The pharmacokinetic behavior of GFS was also investigated following intragastric administration. However, the concentration of GFS found in serum was too low for detection, and GFS could only be detected for up to 2 h after intragastric administration （200 mg/kg body weight）. Thus, the bioavailability of GFS was low following intragastric administration because of the metabolism of GFS. In conclusion, HPLC with post-column derivatization could be used for quantitative microanalysis and pharmacokinetic studies to determine the presence of polysaccharides in the serum following intravenous injection.展开更多
Fucoxanthin content of five brown seaweed species of East Java collected from Talango district （Madura sea-Jawa sea） namely Padina australis, Turbinaria conoides, Sargassum cinereum, Sargassum filipendula and Sargas...Fucoxanthin content of five brown seaweed species of East Java collected from Talango district （Madura sea-Jawa sea） namely Padina australis, Turbinaria conoides, Sargassum cinereum, Sargassum filipendula and Sargassum echinocarpum were determined and samples were collected using Global Positioning System （GPS）. Fucoxanthin from those samples was determined using Thin Layer Chromatography （TLC）, High Pressure Liquid Chromatography （HPLC） and Spectrophotometer UV-Vis and the results were then calculated using Seely equation. The pigments separation using HPLC gave a better result compared to TLC, and beside fucoxanthin otlher pigments namely chlorophyll and β carotene were also identified in these samples. Four points of sampling location were chosen using GPS and spot with coordinate positions observed were 113.94444° EL-7.08795° SA; 113.94231° EL-7.08913° SA. The results showed that fucoxanthin content were as follow： Padina australis 0.2674± 0.0046 mg/g; Turbinaria conoides 0.2134± 0.0100 mg/g; Sargassum filipendula 0.1957 ± 0.0173 mg/g; Sargassum cinereum 0.1640 ± 0.0092 mg/g and Sargassum echinocarpum 0.1576 ± 0.0001 mg/g. It can be concluded that Padina australis and Turbinaria conoides contain the most amount of fucoxanthin and it is possible to be cultivated as edible brown seaweed fucoxanthin resources.展开更多
