Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for separating sialylated oligosaccharides from a fermentation broth in which they are produced by a genetically modified microorganism The separation comprises the steps of: i) ultrafiltration; ii) nano-filtration; iii) optionally, activated charcoal treatment; and iv) treatment with strong anion and/or cation exchange resin.
Abstract:
An achemo-enzymatic synthesis of oligosaccharides of formula 1 is presented wherein R is selected from —OH, —N3 and —OR6 wherein R6 is selected from allyl optionally substituted by one or more methyl, propargyl optionally substituted by one or more methyl, 2-trimethylsilyl-ethyl, —(CH2)n—NH2 and —(CH2)n—N3 wherein integer n is to 10, preferably 2 or 3, R is selected from sialyl moiety, —SO3H and —CH(R)—COOH wherein R is selected from H, alkyl and benzyl, R2 is selected from H and fucosyl, R3 is selected from H and sialyl, R4 is selected from H and fucosyl, provided that at least one of R3 and R4 is H, and A is a divalent carbohydrate linker, having important biological activities and significant commercial value for the pharmaceutical and food industry.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are systems and methods for the purification of human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs). The HMOs can be purified from a suspension containing one or more of a bacterial biomass, cell fragments, small particles, and biomolecules. Advantageously, the solution can be pre-treated prior to centrifuging to form a clarified supernatant containing purified HMOs.
