Contribution on the content and nature of the phycocolloid from Kallymenia reniformis (Cryptonemiales, Rhodophyta)

Abstract: The red alga Kallymenia reniformis (Rhodophyta, Cryptonemiales), collected on the west coast of Brittany, contained 13% ash, 5 .6% crude protein and 38 .7% soluble carbohydrate (on percent dry wt) . The phycocolloid extract (38 % dried wt) was investigated using chemical and spectroscopic (IR and 13 C NMR) methods . Preliminary results show that this polysaccharide belongs to the lambda-carrageenan family .

“…All absorption bands of the FTIR spectra (Table ) show that carrageenan from the three Indonesian coastal areas are found to be iota‐carrageenan. Such finding is in agreement with the work showing kappa and iota‐carrageenan, which can be distinguished from all other carbohydrates because of the absorption band at 848 cm −1 region as the D‐galactose‐4‐sulfate, while the strong band at 806 cm −1 is D‐galactose‐2‐sulfate (Deslandes et al ; Chopin & Whalen ).…”

“…Species belonging to the Kallymeniaceae present a heterogeneous phycocolloid composition indicative of a need for taxonomic re‐examination: Beringia castanea Perestenko and Velatocarpus pustulosus (Postels et Ruprecht) Perestenko, sometimes placed in the family Crossocarpaceae, are agar producers (Usov and Klochkova 1992); Callophyllis cristata and Cirrulicarpus gmelini produce polysaccharides in between agar and carrageenans (Usov and Klochkova 1992); Callophyllis rangiferina (Turner) Womersley produces carragars (this study); Callophyllis rhynchocarpa Ruprecht and Erythrophyllum sp. produce carrageenans (McCandless 1978; Usov et al 1983); Callophyllis variegata (Bory) Kützing, Kallymenia reniformis (Turner) J. Agardh and K. westii Ganesan produce λ‐type carrageenans (this study, Deslandes et al 1990; Chopin et al 1994) and K. limminghii Montagne produces κ‐/ι‐/μ‐carrageenan hybrids (this study).…”

“…By combining 13 C-NMR with FTIR, the carrageenan nature can be established [8]. Solutions of l-carrageenan and its variants are extremely viscous; hence it has not been possible to get a good NMR spectrum in liquid phase studies [9].…”
