Abstract

RUSHDI, Mohammed I. et al. The Natural Products and Pharmacological Biodiversity of Brown Algae from the Genus Dictyopteris. J. Mex. Chem. Soc [online]. 2022, vol.66, n.1, pp.154-180.  Epub Dec 06, 2022. ISSN 1870-249X.  https://doi.org/10.29356/jmcs.v66i1.1639.

Genus Dictyopteris is an important genus among marine seaweeds and is excessively distributed and known by its ocean smell due to its secondary metabolites including C11-hydrocarbons and sulfur compounds. This chemical feature is responsible for its interesting biological properties. This review detected the literature from 1959 to 2021 on the genus Dictyopteris and revealed the secondary metabolites, together with biological activities of the genus Dictyopteris to create the base for additional studies on its clinical and pharmaceutical applications.

Keywords : Marine; natural products; brown algae; Dictyopteris; Phaeophyceae.
