By guiding the reader toward answering basic questions on the structural analysis of glycoconjugates using conventional techniques, this book studies methods such as chemical cleavage, molar composition, use of enzymes, use of lectins and typical fractionation procedures such as HPLC, GLC, TLC, and other chromatographic systems. More sophisticated techniques such as NMR or MS are described to give the reader the essential information needed to adapt procedures to his/her requirements. This book will serve as a practical manual designed for scientists not familiar with glycoconjugate methodologies, but whose research work requires contact with analytical problems or metabolic investigations in glycobiology. It is the result of twenty years of experience of summer schools held in a laboratory environment and will acquaint the reader with widely used techniques in the area rather than cataloguing an exhaustive list of methods. This will help any biochemist to develop an experiment with ease.

Wir sind umgeben von Kohlenhydraten: der süße Kaffee, Tee oder Dessert, die Stärke als Hauptkomponente unserer Nahrung und die Zellulose als Strukturelement in Pflanzen. Kohlenhydrate sind eine wichtige Klasse biologischer Moleküle, die an einer Anzahl wichtiger biochemischer Prozesse beteiligt sind. Gerade beginnen wir die Rolle von komplexen Zuckern zu verstehen, die an Proteine gebunden die Kommunikation von Zellen in einer "Zuckersprache" bewerkstelligen. Und nicht zuletzt kommen die ersten Kohlenhydratmoleküle als Medikamente auf den Markt. Anders als für andere Biopolymere sind die analytischen Methoden zur strukturellen Charakterisierung und Sequenzanalyse für Kohlenhydrate zur Zeit ungenügend, zum Teil wegen der überwältigenden Isotopenzahl der Zucker. Dieses Buch beschreibt die Entwicklung der letzten Jahre, die mit der Kapillarelektrophorese in Bezug auf eine miniaturisierte Analytik mit besserer Auflösung und Empfindlichkeit gemacht wurden. Instrumentierung, Derivatisierung, Trennbedingungen und Anwendungen in verschiedenen Disziplinen und Industrien wie z. B. Glykobiologie, Lebensmittelindustrie und Biotechnologie werden beschrieben.

Glycostructures play a highly diverse and crucial role in a myriad of organisms and systems in biology, physiology, medicine, and bioengineering and technology. Only in recent years have the tools been developed to partly understand the highly complex functions and chemistry behind them. In this set the editors present up-to-date information on glycostructures, their chemistry and chemical biology, in the form of a comprehensive survey. The text is accompanied by over 2000 figures, chemical structures and reaction schemes and more than 9000 references. The accompanying CD-ROM enables, besides text searches, searches for structures, schemes, and other information.

This three-volume handbook is the standard reference in the field, unparalleled in its comprehensiveness. It covers every conceivable topic related to the expanding and increasingly important field of ion chromatography. The fourth edition is completely updated and revised to include the latest developments in the instrumentation, now stretching to three volumes to reflect the current state of applications. Ion chromatography is one of the most widely used separation techniques of analytical chemistry with applications in fields such as medicinal chemistry, water chemistry and materials science. Consequently, the number of users of this method is continuously growing, underlining the need for an up-to-date reference. A true pioneer of this method, Joachim Weiss studied chemistry at the Technical University of Berlin (Germany), where he also received his PhD degree in Analytical Chemistry. In 2002, he did his habilitation in Analytical Chemistry at the Leopold-Franzens University in Innsbruck (Austria), where he is also teaching liquid chromatography. Since 1982, Dr. Weiss has worked at Dionex (now being part of Thermo Fisher Scientific), where he currently holds the position of Technical Director for Dionex Products within the Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry Division (CMD) of Thermo Fisher Scientific, located in Dreieich (Germany).

Recognition of carbohydrates in biological systems has been gaining more and more attention in recent years. Although methodology for studying recognition has been developing, there is no volume that covers the wide area of methodology of carbohydrate recognition. This volume, Recognition of Carbohydrates in Biological Systems, Part A: General Procedures, and its companion, Volume 363, present state-of-the-art methodologies, as well as the most recent biological observations in this area. Covers the isolation/synthesis of substances used in studying interactions involving carbohydrates Discussed the methodology for measuring such interactions Biological roles for such interactions are also covered

The Jenner International Glycoimmunology Meetings have charted the rapid devel opment of glycobiology within the field of inflammation. In less than a decade, the science has grown from basically being involved in carbohydrate analysis to the understanding of how sugars are associated with inflammation and how they have potential as anti inflammatory therapeutics. The 4th Jenner International Glycoimmunology Meeting was re cently held in Loutraki, Greece, and set the scene for what promises to be an exciting future for the speciality. Discussion reflected the rapid advances glycobiology is making and ranged from the basic biochemistry of carbohydrate physiology to therapeutic trials utilizing synthetic sugars designed to block inflammatory responses. The meeting is summarized in considerable detail in this book which will provide the interested scientist and clinician with the essential up-to-date facts within the field of glyco immunology. Acknowledgments Many people have been involved in ensuring the success of the Jenner Glycoimmu nology Meetings but none more so than my secretary Susan Henderson who has borne the brunt of all four meetings and is currently preparing for the 5th.
