Isolation and identification of bioactive compounds from seaweed Sargassum ilicifolium

Three species or Sargassum sp. (S. ilicifolium, S. pofycystum and S. oligocystum) have been screened for antioxidant (DPPH method), cytotoxicity (MTT Assay), antimicrobial (Disc Diffus ion Method) and anti-amoebic bioactivities. All methanol crude extracts showed DPPH free radical scavenging, cytoto...
