04/27/2022 - "Our data provide the first evidence that the use of the ulvan extract could be a good alternative to limit MDV infection in poultry."
01/01/2022 - "Surprisingly, reduction of infection severity was only observed at high concentration of ulvan. "
08/15/2020 - "Ulvan (1068.2 kDa) and ulvan-F1 (38.5 kDa) with relatively high molecular weight showed potency of inhibiting the infection and replication of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) at 100 μg/mL, the inhibition rate of VSV replication was 40.75% and 40.13%, respectively. "
04/27/2022 - "We could demonstrate that the ulvan extract as well as its vitamin-enriched formulation reduce the viral load by about 80% at 24 h post-infection in infected chicken fibroblasts at concentrations that are innocuous for the cells. "
08/01/2022 - "We aimed to study the defense mechanisms induced by ulvan against Bgt in susceptible wheat by investigating the defense-related gene expression, enzymes activity, accumulation of phenolic compounds and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), as well as the development of Bgt infection structures in vitro and in planta. "

10/25/2023 - "The ulvan showed significant antitumor growth activity against hepatocellular carcinoma (IC50 ≈ 90 µg/mL), human breast cancer cells (IC50 ≈ 85 µg/mL), and cervical cancer cells (IC50 ≈ 67 µg/mL). "
12/01/2016 - "The ulvan showed a significant cytotoxic activity against hepatocellular carcinoma (IC50 29.67±2.87μg/ml), human breast cancer (IC50 25.09±1.36μg/ml), and cervical cancer (IC50 36.33±3.84μg/ml)."
01/01/2017 - "This study assesses the possible breast cancer chemopreventive properties of common seaweeds, sea lettuce, Ulva lactuca (ulvan) polysaccharides using in vitro bioassays on human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) and an in vivo animal model of breast carcinogenesis. "

01/01/2017 - "In conclusion, ulvan polysaccharides at the level of initiation and promotion might have potential chemopreventive effects against breast carcinogenesis. "
