Carbohydrate-decorated PCL fibers for specific protein adhesion.

Biomacromolecules

June 2013

Centre de Recherches sur les Macromolécules Végétales (affiliated with Université de Grenoble, member of Institut de Chimie Moléculaire de Grenoble and member of the Polynat Carnot Institute), UPR CNRS 5301, BP53, 38041 Grenoble Cedex 9, France.

Ultrafine biocompatible fibers decorated with carbohydrates were prepared by electrospinning. Both bulk- and surface-modification approaches have been investigated and compared in terms of practicability and grafting density along the fibrous mats. On one hand, bulk-functionalized fibers were prepared by electrospinning of native and galactose-modified PCL polymers.

Preparation and enzymatic hydrolysis of nanoparticles made from single xyloglucan polysaccharide chain.

Carbohydr Polym

May 2013

Centre de Recherches sur les Macromolécules Végétales (CERMAV, CNRS UPR 5301), affiliated with the Université Joseph Fourier (UJF), member of the PolyNat Carnot Institute, 601 rue de la Chimie, BP 53, 38041 Grenoble cedex 9, France.

In this work, polysaccharide nanoparticles based on tamarind seeds xyloglucan are prepared, analyzed in term of characteristic sizes and morphology, and degraded by the action of a glycoside-hydrolase. Obtained in an aqueous NaNO2 solution (0.1M), these unaggregated nanoparticles have a characteristic diameter of ca.
