Research Group of Biochemistry and Technology of Hydrobionts of Algae and Invertebrates

Group members:

Ph.D. Obluchinskaya Ekaterina Dmitrievna - head of the group
Dr., Prof. Shikov Alexander Nikolaevich
Ph.D. Pozharitskaya Olga Nikolaevna
junior researcher Daurtseva Anna Vasilievna
leading engineer Gorshenina Elena Vyacheslavovna

Since 2017, the research group has become part of the zoobenthos laboratory.

Main areas of work:

- analysis and production of biologically active substances (BAS) of algae and invertebrates, their biopharmaceutical evaluation;

- study of the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of BAS of hydrobionts (polysaccharides, polyphenols, pigments, proteins, amino acids, enzymes, etc.);

- study of the effect of biotic and abiotic factors on the composition and content of BAS;

- development of innovative technologies for the production of BAS in seaweeds and invertebrates;

- obtaining functional products and bioproducts with therapeutic and prophylactic properties, the study of their pharmacological activity.

 

 

  

Main achievements:

- the concept of rational use of algal resources is proposed;

- an original method for obtaining the active pharmaceutical substance fucoidan, which has an anticoagulant effect, has been developed (RF Patent No. 2506089, 2014);

- the new substance fucoidan has passed a full cycle of preclinical studies with the financial support of the Federal Target Program "Development of the Pharmaceutical and Medical Industry of the Russian Federation for the period up to 2020 and beyond", based on it, drugs have been created for the treatment of thrombosis and thrombophlebitis of the veins of the lower extremities, which are recommended for clinical trials;

- for the first time, deep natural eutectic solvents have been proposed for the extraction of biologically active substances from brown algae as an alternative to organic solvents and the implementation of the principles of "green" technologies.
