 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 14 Marine life in the application of polysaccharides in medicine and research Abstract: The marine life in the application of polysaccharides in medicine has done a more comprehensive overview, and development and utilization of our marine life made on countermeasures. Keywords:: marine biological polysaccharide; application; study countermeasures Polysaccharide is widely present in animals, plants and micro-organisms of the natural macromolecular cell wall material, is a major component of living organisms, and in controlling cell division and differentiation, regulating cell growth and aging, as well as life-sustaining normal metabolism of other organisms have an important effect. In recent years, plants, fungi polysaccharides in more, and prove that many plants and fungi polysaccharides with a wide range of biological activity, such as the mushroom polysaccharides have anti-tumor effect, Rehmannia polysaccharide is an immune anti-tumor active ingredient, and can enhance the body 〔 1〕 immune function. Seaweed polysaccharides is an important polysaccharide and variety of rich sources, which not only can enhance immune function, but also has anti-tumor, anti-virus, anti-radiation, fat and a variety of biological activities of anti-coagulation 〔 2〕 . With the further development and marine polysaccharide drugs increasing attention to the polysaccharide of marine life are increasing. More current research is mainly marine algal polysaccharide polysaccharide polysaccharide and marine animals, mainly agar, carrageenan, alginate, alginic Agar, Spirulina polysaccharide and chitin. These polysaccharides are a number of the same or different monosaccharide glycosidic bond through the formation of the polymer of carbohydrates, they plants, animals, microorganisms, like polysaccharides also have a variety of physiological activity. In this paper, marine polysaccharides in medical applications to be reviewed, and proposed a study on the developmen
