Sugar-based bicyclic monomers for aliphatic polyesters: a comparative appraisal of acetalized alditols and isosorbide [PDF]
Designed Monomers and Polymers, 2017 Three series of polyalkanoates (adipates, suberates and sebacates) were synthesized using as monomers three sugar-based bicyclic diols derived from D-glucose (Glux-diol and isosorbide) and D-mannose (Manx-diol).

Saliva concentrations of isosorbide dinitrate, isosorbide 2‐mononitrate and isosorbide 5‐mononitrate. [PDF]
British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1984 Correlations between saliva and plasma concentrations of isosorbide dinitrate (ISDN), and its active metabolites, isosorbide 2‐mononitrate (2‐ISMN) and isosorbide 5‐mononitrate (5‐ISMN) were examined. In the case of 5‐ISMN (r = 0.98, P less than 0.01), saliva concentrations are probably reliable indices of the plasma concentrations of this drug and ...
