Phase separation in calcium alginate gels.

European biophysics journal : EBJ

Straatmann A, Borchard W.
PMID: 12692695
Eur Biophys J. 2003 Aug;32(5):412-7. doi: 10.1007/s00249-003-0298-7. Epub 2003 Apr 12.

Alginates are polysaccharides consisting of beta-D-mannuronate and alpha-L-guluronate units. In the presence of bivalent cations like calcium the guluronate blocks form physically cross-linked gels. The gelation properties of alginates play an important role in the stability of extracellular polymer...

Heating of non-substituted beta-D-glucopyranuronic acids in the presence of pivalic or benzoic anhydride in DMF gives 4-O-monoacylated or 2,4-di-O-acylated 6,3-lactones that can be easily transformed into corresponding methyl uronates bearing free OH-groups at C-2 and C-3 or C-3 only,...

Phytochem Anal. 2003 May-Jun;14(3):170-5. doi: 10.1002/pca.703.

Mass spectrometric fragmentation patterns of herbacetin 3-O-glucopyranoside-8-O-glucuronopyranoside (1), gossypetin 3-O-glucopyranoside-8-O-glucuronopyranoside (2) and takakin 7-O-glucopyranoside-8-O-glucuronopyranoside (3) were elucidated from mass spectra obtained with electrospray ionisation. The usefulness of the fragmentation patterns observed in the positive and negative mode for structural...

A synthetic heparan sulfate pentasaccharide, exclusively containing L-iduronic acid, displays higher affinity for FGF-2 than its D-glucuronic acid-containing isomers.

Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry

Kovensky J, Duchaussoy P, Bono F, Salmivirta M, Sizun P, Herbert JM, Petitou M, Sinaÿ P.
PMID: 10482449
Bioorg Med Chem. 1999 Aug;7(8):1567-80. doi: 10.1016/s0968-0896(99)00106-6.

It has been suggested that the FGF-2 binding site on heparan sulfate chains is a trisulfated pentasaccharide containing three hexuronic acid units. The configuration at C-5 of two of them being undetermined, we have synthesized the four possible pentasaccharides,...

(1)H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic analysis for determination of glucuronic and iduronic acids in dermatan sulfate, heparin, and heparan sulfate.

Analytical biochemistry

Sudo M, Sato K, Chaidedgumjorn A, Toyoda H, Toida T, Imanari T.

Anal Biochem. 2001 Oct 01;297(1):42-51. doi: 10.1006/abio.2001.5296.

(1)H NMR spectroscopy has been established for the determination of uronate residues in glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) such as dermatan sulfate (DS), heparin (HP), and heparan sulfate (HS). Because of variation in the sulfonation positions in DS, HP, or HS, interpretation...

A novel pH-sensitive hydrogel composed of N,O-carboxymethyl chitosan and alginate cross-linked by genipin for protein drug delivery.

Journal of controlled release : official journal of the Controlled Release Society

J Control Release. 2004 Apr 28;96(2):285-300. doi: 10.1016/j.jconrel.2004.02.002.

A novel pH-sensitive hydrogel system composed of a water-soluble chitosan derivative (N,O-carboxymethyl chitosan, NOCC) and alginate blended with genipin was developed for controlling protein drug delivery. Genipin, a naturally occurring cross-linking agent, is significantly less cytotoxic than glutaraldehyde and...

Development of alginate wound dressings linked with hybrid peptides derived from laminin and elastin.
