Interactions Between Uronic Acids and Chromium(III)
Abstract Laboratory ion-exchange experiments were performed to investigate the complexation behavior of Cr(III) with uronic acids, such as galacturonic, glucuronic, and alginic acid (main constituents of bacterial exopolymeric substances).

In Silico Structural Analysis of Human β‐Glucuronidase for Antibody–Drug Conjugates Optimization
ABSTRACT Human β‐glucuronidase (HGUSB), a key lysosomal glycosyl hydrolase for the degradation pathway of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), plays a crucial role in cell proliferation and inflammation, making it a promising target for novel therapeutic strategies including antibody‐drug conjugates (ADCs) with β‐glucuronic linkers.

Mucilage Polysaccharide Composition and Exudation in Maize From Contrasting Climatic Regions
Mucilage, a gelatinous substance comprising mostly polysaccharides, is exuded by maize nodal and underground root tips. Although mucilage provides several benefits for rhizosphere functions, studies on the variation in mucilage amounts and its ...

Hyaluronic acid: A novel approach in regenerative/reconstructive periodontal therapy?
Abstract Background Although hyaluronic acid (HA) has long been used for many medical applications, only in recent years has it gained greater popularity in the field of periodontics because of its biological effects during wound healing. Even today, most clinicians are not aware that more than one type of HA exists and that the extent of its ...

Advances in second‐generation biofuel production from rice straw and barley straw
Abstract This review critically examines recent advances in the use of rice straw and barley straw as lignocellulosic feedstocks for second‐generation biofuel production. A comprehensive analysis of their chemical composition, including cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and ash content, reveals how these intrinsic properties affect the efficiency of ...
