The sequence, length and substitution of a polysaccharide influence its physical and
biological properties. Thus, sequence controlled polysaccharides are important targets to …

Glycobiology is a rapidly evolving field and tackles many phenomena of biomedical
importance. Driven by the need to create more efficient methods for the synthesis of complex …

Polysaccharides are a class of bio-macromolecules with highly complex structures that are
widely found in living organisms such as microorganisms, plants and animals …

Polysaccharides are ubiquitous in nature, and play many critical roles in biology. As such,
the synthesis of polysaccharides and of polymers mimicking the structure or function of …

Site-specific modification is a great challenge for polysaccharide scientists. Chemo-and
regioselective modification of polysaccharide chains can provide many useful natural-based …

Natural and largely abundant macromolecules such as carbohydrates have become a
center point of interest for the polymer community, mostly due to their more environment …

This book provides the most up-to-date and comprehensive coverage of the structures and
properties of polysaccharides, methods for their characterization, de novo synthesis, and …

Carbohydrates have been shown to play important roles in biological processes. The pace
of development in carbohydrate research is, however, relatively slow due to the problems …

The past year has seen some major advances in the area of carbohydrate synthesis using
chemical methods. Progress in all areas of synthetic methodology, including new protecting …

Oligosaccharides, commonly found on the cell surfaces, are deeply involved in a variety of
important biological functions, yet demanding difficulties synthesizing such structures limit …
