Description
Natthrit Roekngam and co-authors pull a guard extract from a fresh-water alga with the help of sound waves, in a study from 2026. The alga, Chara corallina, is little used, yet it holds astaxanthin, a red guard part prized in skin care. Sound-aided pulls are a green way to free such parts.
One solvent mix gave the best yield of the red part. The extract fought free radicals in a stock test and tuned guard and swell genes in skin and immune cells. It also lifted a skin frame gene and slowed three enzymes that chew skin frame. The team is frank: the brew is a mix, so the red part alone may not earn the praise. More work must map what is in the brew.
