Unveiling bioactive components in <i>Sargassum fusiforme</i> via phytochemical and biological evaluation: A heterogeneous information ensemble approach.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Sargassum fusiforme (SF), a brown algae, is a marine traditional Chinese medicine with nutritional value. However, studies on the bioactive components in SF are limited. The aim of this study is to investigate phytochemical and biological properties of SF from different geographical origins and botanical parts, as well as to explore bioactive components within SF.

Methods

SF from different origins and botanical parts were collected for integrated phytochemical analyses using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem quadrupole time of flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF-MS), mass spectral molecular networking and liquid chromatography-single quadrupole mass spectrometry (LC-MSD), etc., followed by the systematic chemical profile evaluation.
