Methyl glycoside of the tetrasaccharide GlcNAc(beta 1-2)Rha(alpha 1-2)Rha(alpha 1-3)Rha, which represents a repeating unit of the basic chain of Shigella flexneri O-antigenic polysaccharides, was synthesized using acylated monosaccharide synthons. A dimer of the repeating unit, octasaccharide [GlcNAc(beta 1-2)Rha(alpha 1-2) Rha(alpha 1-3)Rha(alpha 1-3)]2-OMe was obtained by TrClO4-catalyzed condensation of two tetrasaccharide blocks.

Relatedness of White-Tailed Deer from Culling Efforts Within Chronic Wasting Disease Management Zones in Minnesota.

Pathogens

January 2025

U.S. Geological Survey, Pennsylvania Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit, 403 Forest Resources Building, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA 16802, USA.

In white-tailed deer (), closely related females form social groups, avoiding other social groups. Consequently, females infected with chronic wasting disease (CWD) are more likely to infect social group members. Culling has been used to reduce CWD transmission in high-risk areas; however, its effectiveness in removing related individuals has not been assessed.

School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering/State Key Laboratory Incubation Base for Green Processing of Chemical Engineering, Shihezi University, Shihezi 832003 Xinjiang, China. Electronic address:

The development of sustainable and clean energy has become a top priority, driven by global carbon peaking and carbon neutrality targets. Organics are widely used in aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs) due to their environmental friendliness, high structural designability, and safety. However, organic materials often face some challenges, including high solubility, low specific capacity, and unclear mechanism, which hinder its further applications.

The exterior surface of the human pathogen is coated with a capsular polysaccharide (CPS) that consists of a repeating sequence of 2-5 different sugars that can be modified with various molecular decorations. In the HS:2 serotype from strain NCTC 11168, the repeating unit within the CPS is composed of d-ribose, -acetyl-d-galactosamine, and a d-glucuronic acid that is further amidated with either serinol or ethanolamine. The d-glucuronic acid moiety is also decorated with d-glycero-l-gluco-heptose.
