dc.description.abstractONE OF THE MOST EXTENSIVELY STUDIED POLYSACCHARIDES IS ALGINATE EXTRACTED FROM BROWN SEAWEED. THESE TYPES OF NATURAL POLYSACCHARIDES ARE FOUND THROUGHOUT THE WORLD. OVER THE YEARS, STUDIES HAVE SHOWN THAT ALGINATES ARE BIOACTIVE COMPOUNDS WITH ANTICANCER PROPERTIES, LOWER BLOOD PRESSURE, REDUCE CHOLESTEROL LEVELS, PREVENT DIABETES, AND ABSORB HEAVY METALS IN THE BODY. SINCE THE 20TH CENTURY, ALGINATES HAVE BEEN USED IN DIFFERENT AREAS OF INDUSTRY, AMONG WHICH STAND OUT THE CHEMICAL, ENVIRONMENTAL, BIOFUEL, BIOMASS, PHARMACEUTICAL, COSMETIC, AND FOOD INDUSTRIES. THIS CHAPTER DESCRIBES THE CHEMICAL STRUCTURE OF ALGINATE POLYSACCHARIDE AND ITS MAIN CHEMICAL CHARACTERISTICS. SUBSEQUENTLY, THE MAIN TECHNOLOGIES USED TO EXTRACT SODIUM ALGINATE ARE ANALYZED, AND A FULL DISCUSSION OF THE FUNCTIONAL PROPERTIES AND THE FORMULATION OF COLLOIDAL SYSTEMS EMPLOYING ALGINATE ARE INCLUDED TO SHOW ITS FUNCTIONALITY. FINALLY, THE MOST RECENT ADVANCES ON THE ROLE PLAYED BY ALGINATE AS A CARRIER IN THE DELIVERY OF THERAPEUTICS, DELIVERY DRUGS, AND BIOMEDICAL APPLICATIONS ARE DESCRIBED.
