Abstract: The invention provides a D-psicose crystal and a preparation method thereof. The method comprises: adding a seed crystal to a D-psicose solution and stirring uniformly, subjecting the solution to crystallization by gradient cooling and constant-temperature crystallization alternately at 50-30° C., stopping the crystallization until the temperature of the solution is 30° C., separating the crystal by centrifugation, washing and drying, to obtain a D-psicose crystal. Rather than evaporative crystallization, organic solvent-assisted crystallization and ultrasonication, controllable crystallization by gradient cooling, constant-temperature crystallization, and other technical means are employed. Thus, the invention has low requirements for equipment, simple process, low energy consumption, and low preparation cost, and thus particularly suitable for large-scale industrial production and processing. The purity of the D-psicose crystal obtained is ?98.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a preparation and purification method for cationic quaternary ammonium salt of sodium hyaluronate in homogeneous medium. By adding a homogeneous solvent and a sodium hyaluronate solid to a vessel, heating the vessel until the contents are dissolved to form a homogeneous system, adding an aqueous solution of 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride (GTA) to the homogeneous system, then adding a base catalyst, and stirring at a preset temperature to carry out a graft reaction, a graft product is obtained wherein 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride is grafted to the oxygen atom of the hydroxymethyl group of sodium hyaluronate. By using the method, a graft product wherein 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride is grafted to the oxygen atom of the hydroxymethyl group of sodium hyaluronate is obtained. Addition of salts is avoided during the reaction, a grafting yield up to 0.69 is obtained, and coagulation occurred to the product is effectively solved.
Abstract: The present invention relates to: amphipathic compounds derived from 1,3-acetonedicarboxylate; a preparation method therefor; and a method for extracting, solubilizing, stabilizing, crystallizing or analyzing membrane proteins by using the same. In addition, the compound enables membrane proteins, which have various structures and characteristics, to be efficiently extracted from cell membranes and stably stored in an aqueous solution for a long time, compared to a conventional compound, thereby being usable in functional and structural analysis thereof. Analyzing the structure and function of membrane proteins is closely related to the development of a novel drug, and thus is one of the greatest interests in the biology and chemistry fields.
