The invention discloses an
infrared degradation method for ocean sulphated
polysaccharide. The method comprises the following steps that ocean sulphated
polysaccharide dry powder is laid on a clean stainless steel tray, the thickness ranges from 0.1 cm to 0.2 cm, the ocean sulphated
polysaccharide dry powder is placed in a
drying box containing a 2,200w
infrared lamp to be heated for 2 h to 16 h, the height of the
infrared lamp away from the ocean sulphated polysaccharide
powder ranges from 10 cm to 30 cm, and low-molecular weight ocean sulphated polysaccharide
dry powder is obtained. The infrared degradation method has the advantages that no chemical or biological
reagent is introduced, the method is
environmentally friendly, and subsequent purifying processes are reduced; the ocean sulphated polysaccharide is degraded in the state of dry
powder, limit of polysaccharide solubleness is avoided, production efficiency is high, and dissolving,
drying and other
unit operation are reduced; operation is easy and convenient, equipment is simple, and the production cost is low; good
biological activity is achieved, low-molecular weight
fucoidan obtained after infrared degradation is carried out for 16 h shows good bacteriostatic activity, and the bacteriostasis rate of the low-molecular weight
fucoidan with the concentration of 1.0 wt% on
escherichia coli reaches 100%.
