Regioselective Synthesis of Polysaccharide-based Polyelectrolytes
Polysaccharides are one of the most abundant and diverse families of natural polymers, and have an incredibly wide range of natural functions including structural reinforcement, energy storage, aqueous rheology modification, and communication and identity. Application of native polysaccharides like …

Regioselective Design of Polysaccharide Ester Graft Copolymers
Polysaccharide graft (co)polymers, where a polysaccharide comprises the backbone and a separate (co)polymer comprises grafted side chains, are growing in popularity as blend compatibilizers, sustainable elastomers, self-assembling materials, and drug delivery components. This popularity is …

Design and Synthesis of Complex and Fluorescent Labeled Cellulose-Based Derivatives for Orally Administered Drug Delivery Systems
… However, most commercially available cellulose derivatives were not specifically designed for this application, leading to gaps in understanding the key mechanisms by which ASD operate. This creates the need for polysaccharide derivatives specifically conceptualized for ASD and for elucidating …

Regioselective Synthesis of Glycosaminoglycan Analogs
… (GAGs), a large family of complex, unbranched polysaccharides, display a variety of essential physiological functions. The structural complexity of GAGs greatly impedes their availability, thus making it difficult to understand the biological roles of GAGs and structure-property relationships. …

Studies of Biomacromolecule Adsorption and Activity at Solid Surfaces by Surface Plasmon Resonance and Quartz Crystal Microbalance with Dissipation Monitoring
Self-assembly of polysaccharide derivatives at liquid/solid interfaces was studied by surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy (SPR) and quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D). Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) adsorption onto cellulose surfaces from aqueous solutions was …

Studies of Interactions Between Rod-like Celulose Nanocrystals and Xylan and Pullulan Derivatives: A Light Scattering Study
Interactions between polysaccharide derivatives and rod-like cellulose nanocrystals were studied by light scattering. Two replicates of cellulose nanocrystals (DOE-2-12A and DOE-2-12B) were probed with polarized and depolarized dynamic light scattering. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy experiments …

Design and Synthesis of Cellulose Ether Derivatives for Oral Drug Delivery
… occurring cellulose into ester and ether derivatives has been of growing interest due to inexhaustible cellulose resources, and to excellent properties and extremely broad applications of these derivatives. However, traditional esterification and etherification involve relatively harsh …
