Abstract
⺠Fucoidan was recovered from brown seaweed by microwave-assisted extraction. ⺠Pressure, extraction time, and alga/water ratio affected the fucoidan yield. ⺠Extraction conditions able to maximize the fucoidan recovery were established. ⺠Recovered fucoidan was constituted by fucose, xylose and galactose. ⺠MAE with short extraction time was effective to recover fucoidan from seaweed.
