Helicobacter pylori lipopolysaccharide promotes chronic gastric colonisation through O-antigen host mimicry and resistance to mucosal antimicrobial peptides mediated primarily by modifications of the lipid A. The structural organisation of the core and O-antigen domains of H. pylori lipopolysaccharide remains unclear
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a glycoprotein hormone that is essential for the maintenance of pregnancy. Glycosylation of hCG is known to be essential for its biological activity. "Hyperglycosylated" variants secreted during early pregnancy have been proposed to be involved
Approximately 50% of the mass of the Envelope (Env) glycoprotein surface subunit (gp120) of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is composed of N-linked carbohydrate. Until now, the dogma has been that HIV-1 lacks O-linked carbohydrate on Env. Here we
Compounds having antimicrobial activity were synthesized from sodium alginate, the main constituent of brown algae. Sodium alginate was oxidized with sodium periodate to get alginate dialdehyde (ADA). FTIR spectrum of the ADA gave very small peak characteristic for aldehyde groups

Malondialdehyde has been used as a biomarker for lipid peroxidation in biological samples. An ultra-high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry method was developed to determine the levels of malondialdehyde in human urine and saliva samples. To select the
