Creative Biolabs enhances disease modeling and innovative therapeutics development related to the gut microbiome, focusing on ...

The composition of cell walls varies depending on the function of the tissue and the species of plant. Primary cell walls surround expanding cells in young tissues, whereas thickened secondary cell ...

Polysaccharide-based chiral stationary phases have been developed that comprise chiral selectors immobilized on their support rather than being physically coated. These materials are completely ...

The polysaccharide (sugar substance) chitosan has a documented antibacterial effect. New research shows that this antibacterial activity varies according to the chemical composition of the chitosan.

This new article publication from Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B, discusses how an anti-complement homogeneous polysaccharide from Houttuynia cordata ameliorates acute pneumonia with H1N1 and MRSA ...

By cultivating Antrodia cinnamomea in a carefully controlled environment rich in ammonium sulfate, the team was able to stimulate the fungus to produce a special kind of molecule called a sulfated ...

Polysaccharide-protein conjugate vaccines are among the safest and most successful vaccines developed during the last 30 years. Physicochemical techniques are a powerful tool for the structural ...

Professor Iwata Tadahisa et al. of the University of Tokyo have developed an innovative high performance bioplastics from various polysaccharides obtained from natural biomass or by enzymatic ...

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 ...

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 ...

A recent article in ChemSusChem explored the binding of Lytic Polysaccharide Monooxygenases (LPMOs) to polyethylene terephthalate (PET), converting the hydrophobic surface of PET hydrophilic.
