Zusammenfassung: | Stems of brown seaweed Undaria pinnatifida are not often used because they are too difficult to masticate. This study used conventional liquid solvent extraction methods and supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) fluid extraction to investigate the yields of various bioactive compounds in Undaria pinnatifida stems. The enzymatic (α-amylase and glucoamylase) inhibitor activities of the extracts were also examined. The SC-CO2 with ethanol extraction produced high amounts of phenolic and flavonoid compounds, fucoxanthin, epicatechin, and gallic acid. Also, the extracts obtained by SC-CO2 with ethanol exhibited the most potent inhibitor of α-amylase and glucoamylase among all the extracts studied, perhaps because of the high content of fucoxanthin. These results suggest that stems of Undaria pinnatifida could have value as a raw material to extract these bioactive substances. |
