<b>An anti-dengue and anti-herpetic polysulfated fraction isolated from the coenocytic green seaweed <i>Caulerpa cupressoides</i> inhibits thrombin generation in vitro

The antiviral potency of Caulerpa cupressoides (Chlorophyta) sulfated polysaccharidic fractions (Cc-SP1→3) associated with thrombin generation (TG) assay is unknown. This study analyzed the structure of Cc-SP1 and its effects against herpes viruses (HSV-1 and HSV-2), dengue-virus (DENV-1), human-met...
