Polysaccharides are complex in structure and consist of a mixture of neutral or acidic glycan with different molecular masses, which are microscopically inhomogeneous, and their analysis and structural analysis have been the focus of glycomics and glycobiology research. The core of polysaccharide separation and purification is to obtain polysaccharides with low dispersion and uniform charge, which are suitable for subsequent structural analysis and in-depth analysis of active functions. Therefore, polysaccharides need to be separated and purified to obtain uniform polysaccharides.
Our Polysaccharide Isolation and Purification Service
The Polysaccharide isolation and purification platform of Creative Proteomics selects the pretreatment and separation and purification methods (column chromatography, membrane separation or fractional precipitation method, etc.) according to the polysaccharide characteristics of the raw materials, which can efficiently separate and purify various neutral polysaccharides, acidic polysaccharides and mucopolysaccharides and glycan complexes, etc.
