Oral administration of crude fucoidan (CF) extracted from Sargassum polycystum can reduce the impact of White Spot Syndrome virus (WSSV) infection in Penaeus monodon. Crude fucoidan mixed with diet for shrimps weighing of 5–8 and 12–15 g was fed before and after WSSV infection. After 10 days of infection, the maximum survival rates of shrimps of 5–8 and 12–15 g were 46% and 93%, respectively. The crude fucoidan also inhibited the growth of Vibrio harveyi, Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli at minimal inhibition concentrations (MIC) of 12.0, 12.0 and 6.0 mg/ml, respectively.
