Table 2.
Sample | Yield (%) | TPhC (mg PGE/g ext) |
---|---|---|
Crude extract | 25.9 ± 0.80 b | 4.7 ± 0.11 b |
Hex | 10.8 ± 2.57 d | 0.4 ± 0.02 c |
EtOAc | 6.1 ± 1.11 c | 9.4 ± 0.03 a |
AQ | 63.0 ± 2.20 a | 0.8 ± 0.2 c |
Yield is expressed as w/w of dry algae (for crude extract) or of crude extract (for purified fractions). PGE—phloroglucinol equivalents; Hex—hexane fraction; EtOAc—ethyl acetate fraction; AQ—aqueous residue. Data expressed as means ± standard deviations. Different letters within a column indicate significant differences with p < 0.05 using Tukey’s test.
