•Fucosylated chondroitin sulfate from Sea cucumber (Aj-fCS) was prepared and investigated.•Chain conformation was analyzed by HPSEC-MALLS-Visc-RI and worm-like cylinder model.•Aj-fCS exhibited a random coil chain conformation in solution.•Aj-fCS showed a shear thinning behavior and a good thermostability.•Aj-fCS possessed negative charge in wide range of pH and ionic strength.
This study aimed at investigating the chain conformation and physicochemical properties of fucosylated chondroitin sulfate extracted from sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicas (Aj-fCS). By using HPSEC-MALLS-Visc-RI, Mw,
