Complement Component 3C3 and C3a Receptor Are Required in Chitin-Dependent Allergic Sensitization to Aspergillus fumigatus but Dispensable in Chitin-Induced Innate Allergic Inflammation

open access: yesmBio, 2013
Levels of the anaphylatoxin C3a are increased in patients with asthma compared with those in nonasthmatics and increase further still during asthma exacerbations.

Nitrogen sorption as a tool for the characterisation of polysaccharide aerogels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Supercritically dried aerogels of several polysaccharides (chitin, chitosan, alginate, alginic acid, k- carrageenan, and agar) have been characterised by physisorption ofN2. Surface areas as high as 570m2 g−1 have been measured.

Bridging Performance and Fate: A Framework for Sustainable, Composite‐Based Flexible Electronic Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Composite‐based flexible electronics integrate biodegradable polymers, conductive networks, and multilayer device architectures to balance electrical performance, mechanical durability, and controlled degradation. Interfacial engineering and encapsulation regulate transport stability and operational lifetime, while programmed disassembly enables ...

The Synthesis of Chitin-g-Poly(vinyl acetate) Copolymers with a Redox Initiator

open access: yes, 2010
Vinyl acetate monomer was graft polymerized onto chitin with a redox initiator, cerium ammonium nitrate. Both the graft copolymerization and emulsion polymerization of pure poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) were observed during the reaction and a stable ...

Electrodeposited Piezoelectric Chitosan Films: A New Approach Toward a Scalable and Standardized Fabrication of Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Electrodeposition is explored as an innovative and scalable approach to fabricate standardized and highly piezoelectric chitosan films. Chitosan deposition is driven onto gold‐coated silicon plates by an applied voltage. Films’ piezoelectricity is clearly proved and correlated to the material structural order.

Using Synthetic Glycans to Investigate Anti‐Glycan Antibodies and Explore Their Medical Potential

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Anti‐glycan antibodies are essential in health and disease. Access to novel glycan structures paves the way for progress in antibody profiling for biomarker discovery, antibody development, and vaccine design. We summarize the strategies to synthesize and utilize synthetic glycans for the development and application of anti‐glycan antibodies in basic ...

A polyphasic approach to the study of chitinolytic bacteria in soil [PDF]

open access: yes
Chitin is the most abundant nitrogen-containing polymer in nature, with >1x10^10 tonnes produced annually in terrestrial and marine habitats. Chitinolytic bacteria are able to degrade this recalcitrant substrate through a multiplicity of chitinases.

Chitin-binding capacity of rLdpA.

open access: yes
After incubation of serially diluted rLdpA (2.5–40 μg) with chitin (1 mg) in 100 μL of PBS, rLdpA in the supernatant (sup.) and sediment (sed.) was evaluated by SDS-PAGE. (TIF)
