전복을 4일간 굶긴 후 phlorotannin-고함유 곰피를 제공하여 이의 섭취 및 phlorotannin 축적정도를 조사하였다. 전복의 성장속도는 곰피 혹은 일반 사료로 쓰이는 다시마를 20일간 투여한 경우 서로 비슷하였다. 주된 phlorotannin 성분인 7-phloroeckol 및 eckol은 역상 HPLC로서 측정하였다. 7-phloroeckolol은 섭취 6일만에 전복 건조육 1g당 0.58±0.13 mg 정도 축적되었다. Eckol은 6일만에 전복 건조육 1g당 0.25±0.05 mg 정도 축적되었으며 실험기간 내 그 정도를 유지하였다. 대조군로서의 다시마 투여 전복은 phlorotannin을 전혀 함유하지 않았다. Phlorotannin은 전복 조직내에서의 구성효소들에 의하여 분해되어 지는것으로 보인다. 그러므로 다양한 생리활성을 지닌 phlorotannin 물질들을 가진 고부가 가치의 전복 생산은 전복수확 6일전부터 간단히 사료만 phlorotannin-고함유 곰피로 바꾸어 공급함으로서 생산가능하다.

Phlorotannins are common metabolites produced in kelps that can have deterrent functions against grazers. The factors dictating seasonal patterns of phlorotannin content in northeastern Pacific kelps are not well understood. This study assessed density and grazing of the gastropod Lacuna vincta on the annual canopy-forming kelp Nereocystis luetkeana and the perennial understory species Agarum clathratum, Saccharina latissima and S. groenlandica in Kachemak Bay, Alaska. In addition, we assessed seasonal patterns of environmental variables as possible drivers of phlorotannin concentrations. Phlorotannins occurred in all species, with overall lowest levels in N. luetkeana, and with different seasonal patterns among the four species. Lacuna vincta was most dense on N. luetkeana thalli in the summer and had highest grazing rates on this low-phlorotannin species. However, correlations between L. vincta density and phlorotannin content of each kelp species were not significant. Except for N. luetkeana, there were no correlations between phlorotannin levels and environmental variables. We suggest that kelp life history traits may be more important for phlorotannin patterns in these kelp species than grazers or environmental drivers.

Phloroglucinol 단위체로 구성된 Oligomeric polyphenol인 Phlorotannins을 갈조류의 일종인 감태(Ecklonia cava)의 메탄올 추출물의 용매 분획으로부터 분리하였다. 산화스트레스에 대한 감태추출물의 용매분획으로부터 Phlorotannins의 억제효능을 주름형성과 연관성이 있는 사람피부섬유아세포(HDFs)에서 조사되었다. ESR spectroscopy 분석에서, 감태의 에틸아세테이트 분획으로 부터의 Phlorotannins에서 DPPH radical, Hydroxyl radical 및 Alkyl radical에 대하여 가장 높은 소거효능이 나타났다. 2',7'-Dichlorofluorescin diacetate (DCFH-DA)와 Diphenyl-1-pyrenylphosphine (DPPP)을 이용하여 세포내에서 활성산소종 및 지질과산화 수준을 측정하였다. 감태의 다른 용매 분획과 비교하여 에틸아세테이트 용매분획으로 부터의 Pphlorotannins의 존재에서 이들수준이 유의성 있게 감소되었다 (P < 0.01). 더욱이, Phlorotannins은 세포내의 Glutathione (GSH) 함량도 시간에 따라 증가시켰다. 그러므로, 이러한 결과들은 감태의 Phlorotannins이 산화적 스트레스와 연관성이 있는 주름형성 같은 여러가지 질환의 예방 및 치료에 잠재적인 효능이 있다는 것을 암시하고 있다.

Phlorotannins, the major constituent in brown algae, possess various biological activities; however, there is little information their toxicological effects. To assess the safety of phlorotannins, we investigated the acute oral toxicity of a high-purity phlorotannin preparation (PRT; total phlorotannin content 90%) in beagle dogs. Six beagle dogs (3 males, 3 females) were assigned randomly to three experimental groups. PRT was administered at oral doses of 250, 500, and 750 mg/kg by capsule. Vomiting by male and female beagles was observed with 500 and 750 mg/kg on the first day. In addition, one beagle given 750 mg/kg had soft stool and diarrhea on days 3 and 13. No deaths or abnormal clinical signs were observed during the experiment. All groups showed similar body weight gain and food consumption. Our acute toxicity study showed that PRT did not cause any toxicological effects in beagle dogs.

Phlorotannins are reported to have diverse biological properties. However, no analytical methods for the standardization of phlorotannin preparations have been reported. Herein, we developed and validated an analytical method for the determination of dieckol in phlorotannin extracts (PRT) using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The optimum HPLC conditions consisted of a Supelco Discovery C18 column stationary phase, a mobile phase (A: 15 % HPLC grade methanol in deionized water, B: methanol), UV detection at 230 nm, and a flow rate of 0.7 mL/min. The optimized chromatographic conditions were validated and exhibited good specificity and linearity ($R^2$ > 0.9994-1.0000). The recoveries were in the range of 100.9-102.3 %. The method had good intermediate (%RSD 1.2) and intra-day (%RSD 0.4-1.7) assay precisions. This HPLC method had good accuracy and quality in the determination of dieckol in PRT.

Abalone containing phlorotannins is produced by feeding the phlorotannin-rich brown seaweed Eisenia bicyclis after 4 days of starvation. Reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) was used to isolate and quantify phlorotannins, which were identified by mass spectrometry and [$^1H$]-nuclear magnetic resonance to be the P1 compound, 7-phloroeckol, and eckol. When E. bicyclis was used as feed, P1 compound accumulated to an average of 1.60 mg/g dry weight of abalone muscle tissue after 18 d, 7-phloroeckolol to 0.21 mg/g after 16 d, and eckol to 0.22 mg/g after 12 d. Saccharina japonica was used as a control feed, and the abalone showed little or no accumulation of phlorotannins in muscle tissue. Feed consumption and growth rate were very similar when either E. bicyclis or S. japonica was fed for 20 d. Half-maximal reductions in the levels of P1 compound, 7-phloroeckol, and eckol accumulation were attained in 1.5, 1.9, and 3.4 days, respectively, after the feed was switched from E. bicyclis to S. japonica. Value-added abalone containing bioactive phlorotannins can be produced by simply changing the feed to the phlorotannin-rich E. bicyclis 18 d prior to harvesting.

The nitrite scavenging effect of methanol extracts of marine algae were evaluated to discover new natural nitrite scavengers. Among the tested seaweeds, Ecklonia stolonifera, an edible brown algae, showed the strongest scavenging effect. The MeOH extract was then sequentially partitioned into $CH_2Cl_2,\;CH_2Cl_2$ insoluble interface, EtOAc, n-BuOH, and $H_2O$ layers. The EtOAc and n-BuOH fraction demonstrated high levels of nitrite-scavenging activity while the $CH_2Cl_2,\;CH_2Cl_2$ insoluble interface, and $H_2O$ fractions were inactive. A column chromatography of the EtOAc fraction through silica gel and Sephadex LH-20 yielded phloroglucinol and a new compound tentatively named phlorotannin A. The nitrite scavenging activity of phloroglucinol $(IC_{50}=3.9{\mu}g/ml)$ was more potent than that of L-ascorbic acid $(IC_{50}=65.0{\mu}g/ml)$. However, phlorotannin A $(IC_{50}=193.2{\mu}g/ml)$ showed only low levels of activity. From the above results, it is possible to suggest that both the MeOH extract and their fractions and isolated phloroglucinol and phlorotannin A obtained from E. stolonifera may be applicable as scavengers of nitrite, which is a precursor for the formation of carcinogenic N-nitroso compounds.

Ecklonia stolonifera Okamura is a member of the family Laminariaceae, belonging to the order Laminariales. Previously we reported that the methanolic extract of the brown alga E stolonifera exerts antioxidative activity on 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical. In the course of a continuous study on the active principles of this alga, a new phlorotannin, named eckstolonol (2), was isolated along with the four known phlorotannins i.e. (omitted)

To obtain a natural antioxidant from a marine biomass, this study investigated the antioxidative activity of methanolic extracts from the marine brown alga, Ishige okamurae collected off Jeju Island. A potent free radical scavenging activity was detected in the ethyl acetate fraction containing polyphenolic compounds, and the potent antioxidant elucidated as a kind of phlorotannin, diphlorethohydroxycarmalol, by NMR and mass spectroscopic data. The free radical scavenging activities of the diphlorethohydroxycarmalol were investigated in relation to 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), alkyl, and hydroxyl radicals using an electron spin resonance (ESR) system. The diphlorethohydroxycarmalol was found to scavenge DPPH ($IC_{50}=3.41{\mu}M$) and alkyl ($IC_{50}=4.92{\mu}M$) radicals more effectively than the commercial antioxidant, ascorbic acid. Therefore, these results present diphlorethohydroxycarmalol as a new phlorotannin with a potent antioxidative activity that could be useful in cosmetics, foods, and pharmaceuticals.
