PROF. W. N. HAWOKTH'S presidential address to Section B (Chemistry) deals with the molecular structure of carbohydrates. Ten years have elapsed since the structural model of glucose was first ...

The Max Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces (MPICI) has created a carbohydrate sequence that can fold into a stable secondary structure. To date, self-folding biopolymers had only been ...

When manufacturing cellulose-based products, challenges, such as the high melting point of cellulose, make it impossible for it to be melted without decomposition. Thus, shaping cellulose materials ...

Carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) facilitate the formation and break down of complex carbohydrates and glycoconjugates. Studying them gives insight into the biological processes in which they are ...
