Deoxyribonucleic acid is a genetic biomacromolecule that contains the inherited information required to build and maintain a living organism. While the canonical duplex DNA structure is rigorously characterized, the structure and function of higher order DNA structures such as DNA triplexes are comparatively poorly understood. Previous literature has shown that these triplexes can form under physiological conditions, and native mass spectrometry offers a useful platform to study their formation and stability.

Brown seaweed (Phaeophyceae) polyphenolics such as phlorotannins are ascribed various biological activities, including neuroprotection. Of these seaweeds, Ecklonia radiata (E. radiata) is found abundantly along South Australian coastal regions; however it has not been explored for various biological activities relative to any component phlorotannins previously ascribed neuroprotective capacity.
