| Abstract | Fucoidan mainly produced by brown algae is a sulfated polysaccharide with fucose as a main molecule backbone. The objective of this research was to evaluate the non-specific immune potentiating activity of fucoidan from a tropical brown alga, Sargassum cristaefolium indigenous to the Gunungkidul coast, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Fucoidan was extracted by acidic extraction, separated from alginate by CaCl2 precipitation and precipitated with ethanol. To know the component of fucoidan, acid hydrolysis was conducted and analyzed by using silica gel thin layer chromatography. In these analyses, a commercial fucoidan from Fucus vesiculosus was used as a standard fucoidan. Fucoidan isolated from S. cristaefolium was composed by monosaccharide components of fucose and galactose. The result revealed that injection of fucoidan increased phagocytic activity, total plasma protein, leukocrit and leukocyte count significantly (p < 0.05). The immunomodulating activity of fucoidan from S. cristaefolium was comparable to that of fucoidan standard from F. vesiculosus. However, administration of fucoidan did not affect the phagocytic index and leukocyte differentiation. Injection of fucoidan from S. cristaefolium effectively increased innate immunity parameters of tilapia at doses of 0.4–0.6 mg/kg fish suggested that this fucoidan was potential use for immunostimulant to control fish diseases. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
