Rhamnan sulfate is a marine-derived polysaccharide specifically studied for its structural affinity to the endothelial ...

Polysaccharides—long chains of simple sugars—play central roles in biological systems, including supporting cell structure, storing chemical energy, and regulating cell recognition. But synthesizing ...

With the increasing application of natural ingredients in the cosmetics industry, the beneficial properties of natural polysaccharides have been effectively harnessed. Certain polysaccharides exhibit ...

In Gram-negative bacteria, which include some of the most devastating human pathogens, just two mechanisms for the export of polysaccharides have been identified so far. Now a research team has ...

Russian scientists have modified a polysaccharide (a complex carbohydrate) derived from spruce wood and enhanced its ability to prevent blood clotting and neutralise free radicals.

Hooking sugar molecules together to make strings called glycans—also known as oligosaccharides and polysaccharides—is one of synthetic chemistry’s most bedeviling challenges. Carbohydrates are ...

Albizzia julibrissin is a widely distributed plant in China. Its dried stem bark has been used in traditional oriental medicine to treat insomnia, diuresis, sthenia, ascaricide, and confusion.

Conjugate vaccines are composed of bacterial polysaccharide antigens covalently linked to protein carriers, enabling T cell-dependent immune responses that induce high-affinity antibodies and ...
