Anticoagulant activities of a fermented edible brown alga, Laminaria ochotensis was investigated. L. ochotensis was fermented with 15% sugar (w/v) at $25^{\circ}C$ for 10 weeks. Anticoagulant activity was measured from the supernatant of algal mixture at biweekly intervals up to $10^{th}$ week by activated partial thromboplastin (APTT), prothrombin time (PT) and thrombin time (TT) assay using citrated human plasma. Sample having high APTT activity $(6^{th}\;week)$ was filtered, ethanol precipitated and freeze-dried. The polysaccharide compound having anticoagulant activity was purified by DEAE ion exchange chromatography followed by Sepharose-4B gel filtration chromatography. Anticoagulant activity, polysaccharide concentration, and heparin like activity were determined for the collected fractions by APTT, $phenol-H_2SO_4$, and glycosaminoglycan assay, respectively. The anticoagulant activity assay showed that the activity was increased up to $6^{th}$ week, and decreased thereafter. The concentration of our purified compound was $31.0{\mu}g/ml$ and showed higher APTT activity than commercial heparin. At the same concentration of $31.0{\mu}g/ml$, the heparin showed 186.5 sec activity while our purified compound showed an activity of 386 sec. Single spot on agarose gel electrophoresis showed that the compound was purified and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) results revealed that the molecular mass of the purified polysaccharide compound was between 60 and 500 kDa. Therapeutic interest of the algal polysaccharide as an anticoagulant has recently been in highlighted. This purified anticoagulant compound from fermented L. ochotensis can be used as a model for anticoagulant agent or could be developed as an anticoagulant agent. This study can be extended to identify the structure and chemical composition of the purified polysaccharide, and to establish a relationship between structure and the function of the identified anticoagulant compounds.

제주 연안에 서식하는 해양 녹조류와 갈조류의 항고혈압 활성을 알아보기 위해 해조류로부터 메탄올과 물을 이용하여 상온($20^{\circ}C$)과 $70^{\circ}C$에서 각각 4가지 종류의 추출물을 제조하여 스크리닝하였다. 결과, 녹조류에서는 비교적 낮은 ACE 저해활성을 보였으나, 갈조류에서는 70ME 잇바디괭생이모자반, 말미역, 바위주름, 넓패, 톳, 다시마 및 70AE 감태에서 ACE 저해활성이 높게 나타났다. 또한 70AE 감태의 가수분해물은 $2.33{\sim}3.56{\mu}g/mL$의 $IC_{50}$값을 보여 매우 높은 ACE 저해활성을 확인할 수 있었다. 이는 해조류의 ACE 저해활성이 수용성 추출물뿐만 아니라 메탄올 추출물에서도 나타나는 것은 해조류 유래 fucoxanthin, phlorotannin 및 polyphenol계 화합물 등에 의한 영향도 있을 것으로 사료된다.
