Laminaran is a polysaccharide that co-occurs with fucoidan and alginate in brown seaweeds such as Eisenia bicyclis. It is a beta-(1,3)-linked glucan which stimulates the immune system in mammals and fish. Laminarin is a storage glucan and is now used to study its interaction with laminarinase as its substrate.
