Himanthalia elongata (=H. lorea (L.) Lyngb.), although a common brown seaweed on parts of the British coast, does not occur in sufficient quantities to render it of commercial importance. As a result, the work of Colin & Ricard (1930) appears to be the only investigation on the chemical composition of this species. Their material was collected in August 1929, but they give no indication of the size or condition of the plants which were analysed.

Abstract. Lutfia FN, Isnansetyo A, Susudarti RA, Nursid M. 2020. Chemical composition diversity of fucoidans isolated from three tropical brown seaweeds (Phaeophyceae) species. Biodiversitas 21: 3170-3177. Fucoidan is a polysaccharide with high sulfate content, found in the cell walls matrix of brown seaweed. Its bioactivities vary depending on the algae species and the chemical structure. The aims of this research were to extract, purify, and characterize fucoidan from three Indonesian brown seaweed, Sargassum sp., Turbinaria sp., and Padina sp. The extraction was carried out using acid method followed by precipitation with ethanol and CaCl2, while its purification using DEAE-cellulose ion-exchange chromatography. Characterization was performed by FTIR and 1H-NMR spectroscopic analyses. Chemical components of fucoidan determined were total carbohydrates, sulfate residue, uronic acid residue, and monosaccharide components. The results revealed that the Turbinaria sp. produced highest yield of fucoidan (4.8% dry matter), followed by Sargassum sp. (2.7% dry matter) and Padina sp. (2.6% dry matter). The carbohydrate contents of Sargassum sp., Turbinaria sp. and Padina sp. fucoidan were 64.55±0.12%, 67.42 ± 0.03% and 62.90 ± 0.04% with sulfate residues of 0.013% ± 4.71; 19.47±0.002% and 0.016%±8.81; and uronic acid residues of 25.19±0.03%; 12.69±0.03% and 12.91±0.01%, respectively. Sargassum sp., Turbinaria sp., and Padina sp. fucoidans consist of fucose and some other minor monosaccharides.

An attempt has been made to explain the correlation between various ionic concentrations. The maximum concentrations of sulfate, nitrate and hydrogen ions in rainwater are observed during winter season. When classified by season the wet deposition flux for all the ions is greatest in the monsoon season during which precipitation is substantially high. A tendency for increase in acidic deposition is observed at both the stations. The volcanic activity at Barren island appears to influence the chemical composition of rainwater at Portblair. The annual wet deposition of SO42- ranged from 15.6 kg ha-1 yr-1 at Minicoy to 25.5 kg ha-1 yr-1 at Portblair, and the corresponding amounts of NO3- deposited ranged from 38.0 kg ha-1 yr-1 at Minicoy to 74.6 kg ha-1 yr-1 at Portblair. Of the cations Na+ and Ca2+ are the elements deposited in largest quantities followed by Mg2+ and K+.
