Popis: Cladostephus verticillatus, a brown seaweed belonging to the genus Cladostephaceae, was collected from Nobska Point, La Jolla, California, during 1955 and air-dried. Alcoholic, aqueous, and sodium carbonate extracts have been analysed. The major carbohydrates are alginic acid, laminarin, fucoidin and mannitol. Quantitative estimations of the fucoidin and laminarin content (2% and 20% of dried weed, respectively) of Cladostephus spongiosus collected near Plymouth have also been carried out.
