Antibacterial Compounds from Red Seaweeds (Rhodophyta)

Abstract: Seaweeds produce great variety of metabolites benefit for human. Red seaweeds (Rhodophyta) are well known as producer of phycocolloids such agar, agarose, carragenan and great variety of secondary metabolites. This review discusses the red algal secondary metabolites with antibacterial activity. The chemical constituents of red algae are steroid, terpenoid, acetogenin and dominated by halogenated compounds mainly brominated compounds. Novel compounds with intriguing skeleton are also reported such as bromophyc… Show more

“…Results found that the BCM formulation fed twice daily to steers at a rate of 0.30 g/100 kg liveweight (LW) with a grain-based feedlot diet, resulted in a significant reduction in CH 4 production (L/h) equivalent to 93.7% after 28 days of treatment. In addition, 40% of this response could be maintained over a prolonged period (60–90 days), without affecting LW gain and feed intake [ 87 ]. However, the authors acknowledged that this formulation was unlikely to be used in agriculture in Australia to reduce CH 4 emissions due to the fact that un-complexed BCM has an ozone-depleting effect and the manufacture, import and export of ozone-depleting substances, such as BCM, are prohibited by the Australian Government under the Ozone Protection and Synthetic Greenhouse Gas Management Act [ 85 , 88 ].…”

“…A. taxiformis concentrates halogenated compounds that are known to inhibit cobamide-dependent methanogenesis. In addition to CH 4 reduction the Bonnemaisoniaceae family (Rhodophyta) are amongst those with the highest and broadest spectrum of antimicrobial activity due to the content and diversity of volatile halogenated compounds [ 87 ]. The genus Asparagopsis Montagne alone is a particularly prolific source releasing over 100 of such volatile halogenated compounds [ 88 , 89 ].…”

“…The production of antimicrobial properties has been considered as an indicator that particular seaweed has the capacity to synthesize bioactive secondary metabolites. Compounds with antiviral, anthelminthic, antifungal, and antibacterial properties have been detected in brow, red, and green algae [11,19]. Considering that Indonesia has vast area of oceans, and also is the largest island country in the world, investigation related to search of new biologically active compounds from marine products, i.e.…”
