Overview

This research evaluates the antifouling and antibiofilm properties of sargassum plagiophyllum extracts, highlighting ecological safety.

Key Points

  • The 5% formulation of sargassum plagiophyllum significantly reduced bacterial biofilm formation compared to controls.
  • Sargassum plagiophyllum extracts showed potent antibiofilm activity with an IC50 value of 0.014 mg/mL.
  • In situ testing confirmed the formulation's effectiveness in reducing marine fouling over three months at field sites in Malaysia.
  • Cytotoxicity assays indicated that sargassum plagiophyllum crude extract has non-toxic properties at various concentrations.
