Background Uronic acid-containing polysaccharides (UACPs) are a class of
polysaccharides containing at least one type of uronic acid (UA) and have been widely used …

Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), present in the extracellular matrix, are exploited by numerous,
distinct microbes for cellular attachment, adhesion, invasion and evasion of the host immune …

The aim of this pilot study is to compare two extraction processes tested in our lab with
intention to preserve the biological structure and functions of collagen-based isolate for …

Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) play an important role in various biological activities. A lot of
them are present in fish processing discards from abattoirs and fish processing industries …

The antioxidant potencies of chondroitin sulfates (CSs) from shark cartilage, salmon
cartilage, bovine trachea, and porcine intestinal mucosa were compared by three …

Sulfated glycosaminoglycans (SGNL) were extracted for the first time from Norway lobster
(Nephrops norvegicus) shell. The monosaccharide composition analysed by GC/MS …

The goal of the present work was the extraction and structural characterization of novel
sulfated glycosaminoglycans from European eel skin. The recovered glycosaminoglycans …

World fisheries and aquaculture production totaled 167 million tons in 2014. This high fish
production generates a lot of waste that could be used as raw material for extraction of …

In this study both collagen and glycosaminoglycans were isolated from biodegradable
waste. Namely collagen was isolated from rat tail tendons and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) …
