Prognostic Features of Galactomannan Antigenemia in Galactomannan-Positive Invasive Aspergillosis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2010
ABSTRACT Prognostic features of serum galactomannan (GM) remain poorly defined in patients with GM-positive invasive aspergillosis (GPA). We identified 93 patients with proven or probable invasive aspergillosis (IA) and GM values of ≥0.50 from January 2005 to March 2009.

Global hydrodynamic analysis of the molecular flexibility of galactomannans [PDF]

, 2008
In the past, intrinsic viscosity and sedimentation velocity analyses have been used separately to assess the conformation and flexibility of guar and locust bean gum galactomannans based on worm-like chain and semi-flexible coil models.

Serum galactomannan in histoplasmosis in HIV

Indian Journal of Sexually Transmitted Diseases and AIDS, 2022
Histoplasmosis is an opportunistic infection (OI) in HIV infected patients. The Diagnosis is challenging due to lack of testing facilities. Hereby we report a young male who presented with fever & rash, was diagnosed with HIV and disseminated histoplasmosis.

Galactomannan antigenemia in invasive aspergillosis [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1979
Galactomannan (GM) extracted from mycelia of Aspergillus fumigatus with cold dilute alkali reacted with antiserum specific for an antigen that circulated in invasive aspergillosis in rabbits and humans. The GM was purified by its affinity for concanavalin A and was separated from a nonantigenic glucan by gel permeation on Sephacryl S-200.

Guar gum as galactomannan source induces dysbiosis and reduces performance in broiler chickens and dietary β-mannanase restores the gut homeostasis

Poultry Science, 2023
: Galactomannans are abundant nonstarch polysaccharides in broiler feed ingredients. In broilers, diets with high levels of galactomannans have been associated with innate immune response stimulation, poor zootechnical performance, nutrient and lipid ...

Rheological properties of concentrated solutions of galactomannans in an ionic liquid [PDF]

, 2012
The rheological behavior of galactomannans in concentrated solutions was examined by using dynamic viscoelasticity measurements. Concentrated solutions of three galactomannans, guar gum, tara gum, and locust bean gum were prepared with an ionic liquid 1 ...

Structural and thermal characterization of galactomannans from non-conventional sources [PDF]

, 2011
Galactomannans of Gleditsia triacanthos, Caesalpinia pulcherrima and Adenanthera pavonina were structurally and thermally characterized. Methylation analyses confirmed that these three galactomannans are composed by a 4-linked mannose polymer with ...

Evaluation of Caesalpinia pulcherrima endospermic gum as affinity matrices for galactose-binding lectins interaction

Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2011
Lectins are proteins or glycoproteins able to bind, specifically and reversibly carbohydrates and glycoconjugates. Considering this ability, the utilization of Caesalpinia pulcherrima seeds polysaccharides as an affinity matrix was tested.
