During our studies concerning the isolation of sulfated polysaccharides (SPs) from freshwater algae species widespread in Poland, an improved overall extraction methodology has been developed. This new, multi-step procedure allows for obtainment of several fractions that could find use in cosmetic and food industries, with the final one containing the valuable SPs, important both from economic and scientific perspective. Moreover, the process allows for easy use of typical chelating agents to remove harmful heavy metal ions without important losses in natural compounds of interest. Furthermore, a material balance has been established for said process, allowing for its easier implementation on bigger scales, and highlighting the areas which could still be improved to positively affect the final time-cost ratio of the methodology. Combined with previously published information concerning the detailed composition of obtained fractions, we aim to provide a robust and informative outlook on the potential of native freshwater algae species as cheap, raw and easily purifiable resource, usable in a number of important industries. According to the mass balance, nearly 5 % of dry mass of Cladophora glomerata is extractable with ethanol and this fraction consists mostly of fatty acids, phenolics and pigments. Another 5 % of mass can be isolated as pure SPs from aqueous fraction. Additionally, calcium from natural incrustations on the surface of C. glomerata amounts to 17 % of dry material weight and can be reclaimed from acidic wash by simple precipitation; such calcium salts have garnered significant interest as nutritional supplements.

Słodkowodna Cladophora glomerata jako nowy potencjalny surowiec kosmetyczny

Vol. 69, nr 8

491--497

Glony morskie i ich ekstrakty stanowią obecnie jeden z najczęściej stosowanych naturalnych surowców kosmetycznych z uwagi na obecność wielu różnorodnych związków biologicznie czynnych w ich plechach. Z kolei glony słodkowodne są rzadkim obiektem badań i praktycznie nie występują na rynku kosmetycznym. Okazuje się, że słodkowodne makrozielenice z gatunku Cladophora glomerata są bogatym źródłem makro- i mikroelementów, jak również substancji bioaktywnych: kwasów tłuszczowych, steroidów, karotenoidów, polifenoli, terpenoidów, węglowodanów, garbników oraz witamin. Obecność tych substancji warunkuje szeroki zakres aktywności biologicznej oraz potencjalnego zastosowania słodkowodnego glonu Cladophora glomerata w kosmetyce.

Currently, marine algae and their extracts are one of the most commonly used natural cosmetic raw materials due to the presence of many various biologically active compounds in their thallus. However, the freshwater algae are rare object of studies and almost they do not occur on the cosmetic market. It turns out, that the freshwater green macroalgae of the species Cladophora glomerata are a rich source of macro- and microelements, as well as bioactive substances: fatty acids, steroids, carotenoids, polyphenols, terpenoids, carbohydrates, tannins and vitamins. The presence of this substances determines a wide range of biological activity and a potential application of the freshwater Cladophora glomerata in cosmetology.
