Abstract
In modern society, diversity of marine macroalgae has become an inspiration for pharmaceutical companies and researchers because of their numerous health benefits, and a great deal of interest has developed towards the isolation of bioactive compounds to identify novel marine natural products that could eventually be developed into therapeutics or pharmaceutical products. Furthermore, marine macroalgae are valuable source of structurally diverse metabolites with scientifically proven reports.
The search continues as there are many natural bioactive compounds that are in the womb of the ocean which are still a mystery. Thus, the present study investigates the natural products from green seaweed Ulva capensis.
