Taiwan's biotechnology industry is booming. The "Brown Algae Industry Application R&D Team" formed by the Fisheries Testing Committee of the Executive Yuan Committee on Agriculture has made even more dazzling achievements in the research and development of Taiwan's small molecule fucoidan, especially in post-illness assistance. In terms of nursing care, the research results in recent years have been very fruitful, and have been repeatedly published in authoritative international medical academic journals. The team has not only successfully promoted this achievement to the international stage, but also recently won the "Academic Research Innovation Group" award at the 12th National Innovation Award. Dr. Huang Pei'an from the Water Laboratory of the Council of Agriculture said that Taiwan's small molecule fucoidan has attracted international attention and can be said to be the pride of Taiwan's biotechnology industry. He further explained that this is because both the raw materials and extraction technology were developed step by step locally in Taiwan. In recent years, through the integration of resources with domestic and foreign research units, Taiwan's research and development results on brown algae have attracted international attention. The Water Laboratory's original miniaturization technology solves the problem of heavy metal odor. Nine years ago, the Water Laboratory invested in fucoidan research. At that time, the scientific community knew very little about the functions of fucoidan. Through patented hydrolysis technology, the Water Laboratory developed a unique Taiwan's small molecule fucoidan, with a molecular weight of only 500 Daltons, not only eliminates problems such as odor and heavy metals, but also significantly improves the physiological activity by more than 40% compared to fucoidan with a general macromolecular structure, and has no radiation concerns. . Precisely because the physiological activity of fucoidan has been significantly improved, it is helpful for subsequent medical research, especially in the application of biomedical health care. At present, considerable results have been demonstrated, and it is gradually moving towards human clinical medicine. One of the technology transfer product applications has been approved by a domestic teaching hospital to conduct human clinical auxiliary trials. Its potential for scientific verification in health supplementary foods in the future cannot be underestimated. It took nine years of technology transfer to successfully promote commercialization. The benefits of converting the active ingredients of fucoidan into small molecules will help explore and develop standardized operations for products. At the same time, it is also in line with the market trend of high demand for nutritional supplements and greatly enhances the potential for commercialization. success rate. At present, the water laboratory has six main research results on brown algae systemization technology. Including: fucoidan extraction and small molecule technology, fucoxanthin extraction technology and high stabilization process, application of small molecule fucoidan to health foods, application of small molecule fucoidan to skin care products, fucoidan as a Application technology in the body fat reduction industry, and brown algae fermentation technology, etc. Dr. Huang Peian said that these six technological achievements have also been transferred to the Taiwanese industry, and manufacturers have also successfully commercialized the research results. At present, Taiwan's small molecule fucoidan products have been sold in 9 countries including Taiwan, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and the United States, with annual turnover exceeding 300 million yuan. It is one of the successful cases of Taiwan's own biotechnology that effectively improves industrial efficiency.
