Chondroitin 6-sulphate is a glycosaminoglycan component of both cell membrane and basement membrane proteoglycans. In vitro it can inhibit tenascin, a molecule critical for epithelial cell migration during development and in wound healing. The immunohistochemical expression of chondroitin-6-sulphate

β¦ Synopsis
13C-N.m.r. spectra of chondroitin 4- and 6-sulphates, chondroitin, beta-D-glucuronate, and beta-D-glucose 6-sulphate were measured in the presence of ytterbium(III) in deuterium oxide. The structure of the ytterbium-polysaccharide compounds in solution was found to be similar to that reported for calcium chondroitin 4-sulphate in a stretched film. In the glucuronate complex, Yb(III) coordinates to the carboxylate group. For beta-D-glucose 6-sulphate, the ytterbium-induced shifts are too small to allow the structure to be determined.

## Abstract The vitamins, pyridoxine, pyridoxal, pyridoxamine, pyridoxalβ5β²βphosphate and pyridoxamineβ5β²βphosphate, have been studied in aqueous solution over a pH range of 2β12 by ^13^C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Resonance assignments are made primarily by the spinβspin coupling con
Starch can be oxidised to obtain a high-solid, low-viscous dispersion with minimum retrogradation, properties that are of technical importance especially in the paper industry. Alkaline hypochlorite, the most common commercial oxidant, introduces carbonyl and carboxylic functions, and also causes de
