Polysaccharides 37501 and 37503 were also found to contain many of these components, whereas the composition of polysaccharide 37502 was much simpler – 89.3% mannuronic acid and 10.7% guluronic ...

Despite the abundance of alginates in the marine environment, their range of opportunities, especially in the biomedical sector, is severely limited by the inhomogeneity of their composition in the ...

Knowledge of the mechanism of action of AL enzymes when they specifically break the bonds connecting the mannuronic acid-type sugars in this polymer will help to overcome these limitations.
