Harvey DJ. Analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry: An update for 2021-2022. MASS SPECTROMETRY REVIEWS 2024. [PMID: 38925550 DOI: 10.1002/mas.21873] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2023] [Revised: 02/05/2024] [Accepted: 02/12/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
The use of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry for the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates is a well-established technique and this review is the 12th update of the original article published in 1999 and brings coverage of the literature to the end of 2022. As with previous review, this review also includes a few papers that describe methods appropriate to analysis by MALDI, such as sample preparation, even though the ionization method is not MALDI. The review follows the same format as previous reviews. It is divided into three sections: (1) general aspects such as theory of the MALDI process, matrices, derivatization, MALDI imaging, fragmentation, quantification and the use of computer software for structural identification. (2) Applications to various structural types such as oligo- and polysaccharides, glycoproteins, glycolipids, glycosides and biopharmaceuticals, and (3) other general areas such as medicine, industrial processes, natural products and glycan synthesis where MALDI is extensively used. Much of the material relating to applications is presented in tabular form. MALDI is still an ideal technique for carbohydrate analysis, particularly in its ability to produce single ions from each analyte and advancements in the technique and range of applications show little sign of diminishing.

Carbohydr Polym 2024; 324:121493. [PMID: 37985085 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2023.121493] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2023] [Revised: 09/28/2023] [Accepted: 10/12/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023]
Abstract
Oligocellulose (OC) with low polydispersity indices has been produced in large quantities using an improved method of acid-assisted hydrolysis, in which long cellulose chains disintegrate in concentrated phosphoric acid at moderately elevated temperatures. The hydrolysis time has been reduced by three orders of magnitude without compromising the overall yield of the process or the quality of OC products. The efficient production of high-quality OCs in large quantities allows for developing OC-derived elastomeric materials. A series of OC-graft-poly(isobornyl methacrylate-random-n-butyl acrylate) [OC-g-P(IBOMA-r-BA)] elastomers have been synthesized via activators regenerated by electron transfer for atom transfer radical polymerization (ARGET ATRP). OC-g-P(IBOMA-r-BA) elastomers have tunable molecular architectures and phase morphologies toward desirable mechanical properties and thermal stability suitable for various applications. The methodologies of the OC production and the graft-polymers synthesis in this study would help advance technologies for broader applications of bio-based elastomers.

Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 209:1848-1857. [PMID: 35487380 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.04.159] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2022] [Revised: 04/17/2022] [Accepted: 04/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022]
Abstract
In this work, sustainable cellulose-g-poly(lauryl acrylate-co-acrylamide) [Cell-g-P(LA-co-AM)] bottlebrush copolymer elastomers derived from cellulose and plant oil were synthesized by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. Differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) results indicate that these thermally stable Cell-g-P(LA-co-AM) bottlebrush copolymer elastomers show adjustable melting temperatures. Monotonic and cyclic tensile tests suggest that the mechanical properties, including tensile strength, extensibility, Young's modulus, and elasticity, can be conveniently controlled by changing the LA/AM feed ratio and cellulose content. In such kind of bottlebrush copolymer elastomers, the rigid cellulose backbones act as cross-linking points to provide tensile strength. The incorporated PAM segments can form additional network structure via hydrogen bonding, resulting in enhanced tensile strength but decreased extensibility when more PAM segments are introduced. This versatile strategy can promote the development of sustainable cellulose-based bottlebrush copolymer elastomers from renewable resources.
