Silver Nanoparticles Containing Fucoidan Synthesized by Green Method Have Anti-<i>Trypanosoma cruzi</i> Activity

The brown seaweed <i>Spatoglossum schröederi</i> synthesizes three bioactive fucoidans, the most abundant of which is fucan A. This fucoidan was extracted and its identity was confirmed by chemical analysis, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and agarose gel electrophoresis....
