Fucoidan, a complex sulfated polysaccharide containing substantial percentages of L-fucose and sulfate ester groups, is a constituent of brown algae and some marine invertebrates. Besides L-fucose, it frequently contains D-xylose, D-galactose, D-mannose and D-glucuronic acid. Fucoidan has no determined molecular formula, and its structure built up mainly of (1→2)-linked, 4-O-sulfated fucopyranose residues has been generally accepted for fucoidan from Laminaria Japonica or Undaria Pinnatifida.
Induces cancer cell to self-destruct (apoptosis) and has more than twenty biological functions
Has both hydrophilic and hydrophobic molecular group, can be easily formulated into functional food and cosmetics.
Why should you choose AlgaNovo Fucoidan?
We control our products quality strictly complied with HACCP, from the selection of raw materials to the last process step, which ensures natural properties and safety of our products.
Raw material Quality Control: ALGANOVO Fucoidan is extracted from natural wild and high concentrated Laminaria Japonica originated from unpolluted ocean to ensure the product safety.
Unique Extraction Process: Use less than 70°C extraction temperature in order to protect natural ecological activities of the original Fucoidan. Proprietary extraction technology ensures sulfate ester groups content is greater than 25%, and the whole process is not involved with any chemical processing, which ensures our products no residual solvent impurity, while strictly controls heavy metal occurring content.

Application and Function
Applied to food industry as functional food additive:
ALGANOVO Fucoidan can be used as functional food additive for its bioactivities, which occur mainly due to its high degree of sulfation.It has following Functions:
1. Enhance the immune system
2. Support cell-to-cell communication
3. Decrease high blood-sugar and cholesterol levels.
4. Detoxify the body from heavy metals, radioactive elements, free radicals and toxins
5. Protect against thyroid cancer and other carcinoma diseases
6. Reduce the risk of catching hepatic fibrosis
Applied to cosmetic industry:
ALGANOVO Fucoidan can be used as functional ingredient for cosmetic, due to its high degree of sulfation, although the bioactivities possibly depend on fine structural peculiarities and molecular weight, which interacts with transforming growth factor-β, reactive oxygen species, and other factors, has anti-oxidative properties and delays cell aging. In addition, ALGANOVO Fucoidan is absolutely natural, complied with the conception of natural cosmetic, which has no stimulation and side effect on our skin.
Functions:
1. Improve structures of hair and nails, and help them grow
2. Make skin more smooth and elastic
3. Inhibit melanogenesis and make skin luster.
4. Compact your skin and make you look younger
