Alginate lyase which was purified from the fermentation solution of marine bacteria Pseudomonas sp. HJZ216 was applied to hydrolyze algae alginate. Six oligosaccharides, including di- and trisaccharides, were isolated and purified through anion exchange chromatography. The oligosaccharide structures were elucidated based on electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and 2D NMR spectra analysis.
