Maritech® Fucus vesiculosus extract
HIGH-PURITY FUCOIDAN EXTRACT
Maritech® Fucus vesiculosus extract is a highly characterised, certified organic fucoidan ingredient sourced from wild Fucus vesiculosus seaweed. This seaweed (commonly known as bladderwrack) grows in the pristine coastal waters of Nova Scotia, Canada, where it is harvested on an environmentally sustainable basis.
The unique fucoidan found in Fucus vesiculosus seaweed is highly sulfated, with a backbone containing predominantly fucose. A small ‘branch’ of the molecule can be seen on the left or above.
