Plasma Glycoproteins, Mucoproteins, and Mucopolysaccharides

Abstract

(3) Fucose: This is a methylpentose (it can also be considered a deoxyhexose) which is present in the serum glycoproteins.

Biochemical Significance of Serum Glycoproteins. I. Changes in Rat Serum Following Injury

“…Such changes in human serum have been shown by electrophoretic studies to involve a reduction in the albumin level accompanied by elevations in al and u2 glohulins (2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8). Such changes in human serum have been shown by electrophoretic studies to involve a reduction in the albumin level accompanied by elevations in al and u2 glohulins (2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8).…”

“…The polysaccharides were non-toxic at 5 mg. Materials used in this study were those from .l-cissct.ia gonorrhocae 9 7 , Escherichia coli 0 1 1 7 : H 2 7 and Salmonella abortus equi. The precipitates were washed with acetone and dried over sodium hydroxide under reduced pressure.…”
