Review of Mechanisms and Applications of Alginate Oligosaccharides

Alginate oligosaccharides (AOS) are functional oligosaccharides derived from the enzymatic or chemical degradation of alginate, a natural polysaccharide abundantly found in brown seaweeds. Compared to alginate, AOS possess a lower molecular weight, better water solubility, and enhanced bioavailability, enabling them to overcome the limitations of alginate’s high viscosity and poor absorption. Recent research, including a …
