Carrageenan is a polysaccharide derived from red algae (seaweed) with enormous economic potential in wide range of industries, including pharmaceuticals, food, cosmetics, printing, and textiles. primarily produced through aquaculture-based seaweed farming, Eucheuma Kappaphycus species accounting for more than 90% global output. There are three major types carrageenan found algae: kappa ( κ )-, iota ι lambda λ )-carrageenan. alvarezii the most common kappa-carrageenan source, it farmed Asian countries such as Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia. extracted K. has recently received lot attention due to its applications. This review will discuss terms metabolic physicochemical structure, extraction methods factors affecting production yield, well current future

In the last decades, interest in seaweed has significantly increased. Bioactive compounds from seaweed’s currently receive major attention pharmaceutical companies as they express several interesting biological activities which are beneficial for humans. The structural diversity of metabolites provides diverse expressed through mechanisms actions. This review mainly focuses on antiviral activity extracts, highlighting actions some molecules against infection caused by different types enveloped viruses: influenza, Lentivirus (HIV-1), Herpes viruses, and coronaviruses. Seaweed with properties can act trough pathways increasing host’s defense system or targeting blocking virus replication before it enters host cells. Several studies have already established large spectrum bioactive compounds. Throughout this review, medical applications analyzed, suggesting potential source formulation novel natural drugs.
