Is density functional theory accurate for lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase enzymes? [PDF]
The lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO) enzymes boost polysaccharide depolymerization through oxidative chemistry, which has fueled the hope for more energy-efficient production of biofuel. We have recently proposed a mechanism for the oxidation of the polysaccharide substrate (Hedeg{\aa}rd & Ryde, Chem. Sci. 2018, 9, 3866).

This study investigated the effect of dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) on sea cucumber polysaccharide (SP-2) and evaluated its anti-inflammatory properties. The SP-2 was depolymerized by applying an input voltage of 60~90 V for 3~9 min. The features of

Polysaccharide/Surfactant complexes at the air-water interface - Effect of the charge density on interfacial and foaming behaviors [PDF]
The binding of a cationic surfactant (hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide, CTAB) to a negatively charged natural polysaccharide (pectin) at air-solution interfaces, was investigated on single interfaces and in foams, versus the linear charge densities of the polysaccharide.

Molecular mechanism of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases [PDF]
The lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are copper metalloenzymes that can enhance polysaccharide depolymerization through an oxidative mechanism and hence boost generation of biofuel from e.g. cellulose. By employing density functional theory in a combination of quantum mechanics and molecular mechanics (QM/MM), we report a complete ...

Magnetic hydrogels derived from polysaccharides with improved specific power absorption: potential devices for remotely triggered drug delivery [PDF]
We report on novel ferrogels derived from polysaccharides (sodium alginate and chitosan) with embedded iron oxide nanoparticles synthesized in situ and their combination with thermally responsive poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) for externally-driven drug release using AC magnetic fields.
