Treatment of demodicosis is usually based on the use of acaricidal drugs of general effect both orally and externally. However, Demodex mites have a thick three-layer cuticle, therefore, antiparasitic preparations of contact action are extremely inefficient, and increasing the dose means increasing toxicity including for skin cells. The way out can be polysaccharides of a structure unusual for terrestrial animals – e.g. sulfated galactans (class of sulfated polysaccharides) from red algae (Rhodophyta) consisting of partially sulphated residues of β-D-galactose and its derivatives connected with alternating α-1,3- and β-1,4-glycosidic chemical bond.
