Abstract:
Novel polysaccharide compounds are disclosed for decorating biomolecular surfaces to increase isotropic size and mask antigenicity. The oligosaccharides may by synthesized as repeating disaccharide units, or may be derived by acid hydrolysis of naturally occurring polysaccharides. Such natural sources include chondroitins obtained from shark cartilage, or hyaluronic acid. The polyanionic sulfate groups contained in the sugar moieties impart negative charges which repel the molecules from the negatively charged wall of capillaries, to lengthen retention times of decorated drug molecules, such as cross-linked hemoglobin, in the peripheral circulation.

Abstract:
The present disclosure generally relates to the field of enteral and parenteral nutritional formulations in which enantiomerically-enriched energy substrates are used for providing high caloric density and low osmolarity. In particular monoisomeric glyceryl tri(chiral alkanoates), anomeric mixtures of alpha, beta-D-glucopyranosyl alkanoates, monoisomeric chiral alkanoic acid esters, anomeric chiral alkanoic acid esters as well as methods for their preparation and their use in enteral or parenteral nutrition, for metabolic disorder, trauma and malnutrition are described.
