  • HIGH-YIELD PEROXIDE QUENCH-CONTROLLED POLYSACCHARIDE DEPOLYMERIZATION AND COMPOSITIONS THEREOF
    Publication number: 20220372175
    Abstract: Provided are methods for cleaving polysaccharides, comprising reacting polysaccharides with a Fenton's reagent, and cleaving the treated polysaccharides with a nitrogen-based cleavage reagent, which preferably is also a peroxide-quenching agent. Synthetic oligosaccharide compositions produced by such polysaccharide cleaving methods are further disclosed. Such oligosaccharide compositions are shown to provide utility in various aspects including modulating microbial growth and/or microbial or host metabolism.
