Synthesis of nanoparticle CT contrast agents: in vitro and in vivo studies
Water-soluble and biocompatible D-glucuronic acid coated Na2WO4 and BaCO3 nanoparticles were synthesized for the first time to be used as x-ray computed tomography (CT) contrast agents. Their average particle diameters were 3.2 ± 0.1 and 2.8 ± 0.1 nm for

Deconjugation Kinetics of Glucuronidated Phase II Flavonoid Metabolites by B-glucuronidase from Neutrophils [PDF]
Flavonoids are inactivated by phase II metabolism and occur in the body as glucuronides. Mammalian ß-glucuronidase released from neutrophils at inflammatory sites may be able to deconjugate and thus activate flavonoid glucuronides.

Identification of novel chondroitin proteoglycans in Caenorhabditis elegans: embryonic cell division depends on CPG-1 and CPG-2. [PDF]
Vertebrates produce multiple chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans that play important roles in development and tissue mechanics. In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, the chondroitin chains lack sulfate but nevertheless play essential roles in embryonic ...

Properties of bio-based gum Arabic/clay aerogels [PDF]
Lightweight bio-based aerogels from sustainable gum Arabic (GA) and sodium montmorillonite (Na+-MMT) clay were prepared by means of a simple freeze-drying process. GA/clay aerogels showed high porosity (87.9%–94.9%) of mainly open type and the mechanical

Synthesis of Uridine Diphosphate-Glucuronic Acid
Uridine 5'-phosphoramidate (I) was allowed to react with α-glucuronic acid 1-phosphate (II), and α-uridine diphosphate glucuronic acid (α-UDPGA) (III) was isolated from the reaction mixture by ion exchange chromatography. Likewise, β-UDPGA (V) was produced from (I) and β-glucuronic acid 1-phosphate (IV).

Synthesis of Glycosides of Glucuronic, Galacturonic and Mannuronic Acids: An Overview
Uronic acids are carbohydrates present in relevant biologically active compounds. Most of the latter are glycosides or oligosaccharides linked by their anomeric carbon, so their synthesis requires glycoside-bond formation. The activation of this anomeric
