The influence of neutral and ionic polysaccharides on the antioxidant (AOA) and detoxifying activities of lactoferrin (LF) and the duration of its circulation in the body was studied. In addition to natural polymers, we studied artificial chitosan derivatives with different
From the air-dried Wild strawberry (Fragaria vesca L., family Rosaceae) leaves five water-soluble glycoconjugates Fv I-V by different extraction conditions have been isolated. Effects of extraction steps/agents on chemical composition and anticoagulant activity of Fv I-V were examined. Dark brown
Pulp from peaches contained polygalacturonic acid and arabinogalactan as main polysaccharides, which were isolated and characterised. The polygalacturonic acid (AE-CWI) contained 95% GalA and its (13)C NMR spectrum showed signals at δ 98.9, 78.0, 71.4, 69.1, 68.4, and 175.1 from
