Properties
Description
Phenyl-xylan conjugation represents an aromatic hybrid combining π-electron density with xylan's β-1,4-xylose framework. This biomaterial design benefits from enhanced hydrophobic interactions and structural rigidity.
Glycan Structure
Its glycan structure is a linear backbone of β-1,4-linked D-xylose residues with side-chain substitutions including α-linked arabinofuranose, glucuronic acid/4-O-methyl-glucuronic acid, and acetyl groups at O-2 or O-3 positions.
