Abstract: This disclosure relates to pectin-based polymer compositions and methods of use thereof to cover, protect, and seal injuries, e.g., surgical wounds, in a mesothelial tissue. The methods include obtaining a bioadhesive pectin-based polymer composition including a complex of high-methoxyl pectin (HMP) and carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) in a ratio from about 10 to 1 to 1 to 10 by weight; applying the composition to an injured mesothelial tissue; and applying pressure for at least one minute to enable the composition to bind to the mesothelial tissue.

Abstract: The invention pertains to a method for synthesizing a product of interest by culturing a microalgal cell obtained from a subterranean habitat for producing the product of interest. The microalgal cell obtained from a subterranean habitat can be cultured in the dark, in light, in low nutrition, or nutrient rich conditions for at least a portion of production cycle. A combination of these conditions can be used to specifically manipulate a microalgal cell culture to produce a product of interest. The product of interest can be a water-soluble carotenoid, for example, a water-soluble carotenoid produced by culturing an algae belonging to the genus Haematococcus or a capsular exopolysaccharide produced by culturing an algae belonging to the genus Parachlorella. Compositions containing the water-soluble carotenoid, for example, as sunscreen and compositions containing the exopolysaccharide, for example, as moisturizing cream are also described.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for synthesizing an O-antigen saccharide chain of Helicobacter pylori serotype O:6 using seven glycosylation building blocks. Inexpensive and easily available D-glucosamine, D-galactose, D-mannose and L-fucose are used as starting materials, and seven glycosylation building blocks are obtained through a series of chemical reactions. The saccharide building blocks are then selectively linked together to produce O-antigen oligosaccharide chains of Helicobacter pylori serotype O:6 with different saccharide configuration through a series of glycosylation reactions. Also disclosed is a method to assemble an amino linker at the reducing end of the O-antigen saccharide chain of Helicobacter pylori serotype O:6, and the synthesized oligosaccharide chain with an amino linker can be coupled to a carrier molecule or immobilized on a matrix.
