Polyphenols are a class of compounds found in many plant foods. Polyphenols help prevent cell damage in the body and can help prevent diseases like cancer or heart disease. However, many of them…

glycan profiling

CD BioGlyco, a biotechnology company specialized in glycobiology research, now provides glycan structure analysis to help with glycomics characterization research. Carbohydrates, also known as glycans, are physiologically necessary. They are essential in all biological processes. Glycans’ molecular structure is constantly changing. Oligosaccharides and polysaccharides can be linear or branched, and their monomers can be connected…
