Antioxidant sulfated polysaccharide from edible red seaweed Gracilaria birdiae is an inhibitor of calcium oxalate crystal formation

The genus Gracilaria synthesizes sulfated polysaccharides (SPs). Many of these SPs, including those synthesized by the edible seaweed Gracilaria birdiae, have not yet been adequately investigated for their use as potential pharmaceutical compounds. Previous studies have demonstrated the immunomodula...
