Polysaccharide Vaccines: A Perspective on Non-Typhoidal Salmonella

Polysaccharides, 2021
Polysaccharides are often the most abundant antigens found on the extracellular surfaces of bacterial cells. These polysaccharides play key roles in interactions with the outside world, and for many bacterial pathogens, they represent what is presented ...

Sensitivity enhancement of homonuclear multidimensional NMR correlations for labile sites in proteins, polysaccharides, and nucleic acids

Nature Communications, 2020
Here, the authors present an approach that enhances the sensitivity of basic 2D biomolecular NMR experiments like NOESY and TOCSY, when carried out in polysaccharides, proteins and nucleic acids. This method combines principles associated to quantum Anti-

Dissolved storage glycans shaped the community composition of abundant bacterioplankton clades during a North Sea spring phytoplankton bloom

Microbiome, 2023
Background Blooms of marine microalgae play a pivotal role in global carbon cycling. Such blooms entail successive blooms of specialized clades of planktonic bacteria that collectively remineralize gigatons of algal biomass on a global scale.

Occurrence of L-iduronic acid and putative D-glucuronyl C5-epimerases in prokaryotes [PDF]

, 2011
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are polysaccharides that are typically present in a wide diversity of animal tissue. Most common GAGs are well-characterized and pharmaceutical applications exist for many of these compounds, e.g. heparin and hyaluronan.

Decolorization of synthetic melanoidins-containing wastewater by a bacterial consortium [PDF]

, 2008
The presence of melanoidins in molasses wastewater leads to water pollution both due to its dark brown color and its COD contents. In this study, a bacterial consortium isolated from waterfall sediment was tested for its decolorization.

Quantification of polysaccharides fixed to Gram stained slides using lactophenol cotton blue and digital image processing [version 5; referees: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

F1000Research, 2017
Dark blue rings and circles emerged when the non-specific polysaccharide stain lactophenol cotton blue was added to Gram stained slides. The dark blue staining is attributable to the presence of capsular polysaccharides and bacterial slime associated ...
