Algin or Alginic Acid is a protein of marine algae and is found in many seaweeds. Its principal source of prepn is as a by-product of the extraction of iodine from kelp, principally from Laminaria dlgitata. It has been used mainly in Japan, for the prepn of films, fabric dressing, and for thickening jellies. Its soln in Na carbonate can be used as a mucilage (Refs 1 2)... [Pg.124]

Polyuronides macromolecular compounds found in plants, consisting of units of uronic acids in the pyr-anose form (see Carbohydrates). The main components are o-glucuronic acid, o-galacturonic acid and D-mannuronic acid. P. contain free carboxyl groups and are consequently more strongly hydrated than polysaccharides formed from neutral monosaccharides. Examples are pectins, alginic acid and plant mucilages. [Pg.533]
