Title

An Assessment of Antioxidant Activity, Phytochemical screening and antifungal Efficiency of red seaweeds,Gracilaria corticata J.Ag., and Gracilaria follifera( Forssk.) Boergs

Abstract

The global biodiversity can be terrestrial as well as marine. The marine diversity is seen to be higher than terrestrial one. Algae being one of the most important plant species in the sea have high photosynthetic capacity. Algae are considered to be primitive plants. In the present investi-gation, studies on the phytochemical, anti-fungal, antioxidant, flavonoid and phenol properties of Gracilaria corticata and Gracilaria follifera were conducted with the help of three different sol-vent extracts like hexane, ethyl acetate and ethyl acetate+hexane mixture. The phytochemical analysis showed the presence of alkaloids, steroids, flavonoids, phenols, coumarins, cardiac gly-cosides, tannins and saponins in the algae. These phytochemicals have significant application on human pathogens. These algae also have antifungal activity against Aspergillus niger and Fusari-um oxysporum. Seaweeds are rich in antioxidants such as polysaccharides, carotenoids, and pig-ments. Phenolic compounds and flavonoids are maximum in red seaweeds. The main objective of the present study was to determine the antioxidant, phytochemical and antifungal efficiency of red seaweed Gracilaria corticata and Gracilaria follifera collected from Thikkodi coast.
